his is a delicious spicy dish—I love the heat of shishito peppers, especially not knowing whether the next hit will be sweet and peppery or sweet and POW!
Ingredients
-2 tablespoons canola oil
-pinch of sea salt flakes
-1 garlic clove crushed and finely chopped
-1 red chile seeded and finely chopped
-7 ounces shishito peppers left whole
-10 ounces cooked jumbo shrimp
-1 tablespoon mirin
-2 tablespoons low-sodium light soy sauce
-juice of 1 lime
-pinch of sugar
Method
-Heat a wok over high heat until smoking and add the canola oil.
-Add the salt and let it dissolve in the hot oil.
-Add the garlic and red chile and toss for a few seconds.
-Add the shishito peppers, toss for 30 seconds until they are seared on the outside and beginning to soften, then stir-fry for another minute.
-Add the cooked shrimp and toss for less than 1 minute (or cook raw shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes, depending on their size).
-Season with the mirin, the light soy sauce, lime juice, and sugar.
-Transfer to serving plates and serve on its own as an appetizer, or with jasmine rice as a main meal.
