Szechwan Shrimp

Hello Fit-NOW Friends!

I've been cruisin the allrecipes.com website for some new dinner ideas. Here's a new one I've never tried before. The author of the recipe said, "Don't let some of the ingredients fool you -- this spicy shrimp makes a simple, impressive dish for any occasion!" It is recommened to simply adjust the amount of red pepper depending on how "spicy" you like your dish. Serve over hot steamed rice or vegteables.

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup sliced green onions
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 12 ounces cooked shrimp, tails removed

Directions

1. In a bowl, stir together water, ketchup, soy sauce, cornstarch, honey, crushed red pepper, and ground ginger. Set aside.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in green onions and garlic; cook 30 seconds. Stir in shrimp, and toss to coat with oil. Stir in sauce. Cook and stir until sauce is bubbly and thickened.
