Sweet and Sour Shrimp


I love Chinese food but I am always scared to eat it out because I have no idea what is in the sauce. I normally just order plain steamed veggies and meat. This recipe came out great!

 

Ingredients:

2 Bell Peppers (sliced thin)

1 Small Onion (sliced thin)

1 Cup Fresh Pineapple (diced small)

2 Pounds Large Shrimp (cleaned)

2 Tbs Corn Starch

1 tsp Salt

1 tsp Pepper

 

Sauce Ingredients:

1/3 Cup GF Soy Sauce

1 TBS Seracha  Sauce

1/3 Vietnamese Quick Fish Sauce

1/3 Cup Sweet Chili Sauce

1/3 Cup Water

1/2 Tbs Sugar

Juice of half a lime

 

Place peppers and onion in a well sprayed sauce pan over medium heat. Add pineapple, mix well and cook for a minute or two. Now add all the sauce ingredient, combine, cover and cook on low for 10-15 until pepper are soft. While sauce is cooking place shrimp in a bowl with salt, pepper and corn starch. Mix the shrimp up and then add to sauce once it’s ready. Increase heat to medium and cook shrimp for about 3  minutes until they turn pink. Serve hot on rice or steamed veggies.
