Cooking tips

Since this recipe cooks the shrimp quickly with the sauce without frying, be sure to use small shrimp for even seasoning and tender texture throughout.
For a spicier kick, add a drizzle of chili oil or finely chopped Cheongyang chili pepper while cooking.
The finished chili shrimp is also delicious served on plain baguette or toast for a brunch-style meal.
