Kung Pao Shrimp
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1/2 - 1 teaspoon chili paste, depending on how hot you like it (like sambal oelek)
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 lb extra large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- Whisk together the broth, oyster sauce, chile paste, and cornstarch in a small bowl.
- Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- Add shrimp and peanuts and cook, stirring, until the shrimp are just barely cooked (2 - 3 minutes). Transfer them to a plate.
- Heat the sesame oil in the skillet, and saute the bell pepper until just barely tender (about 3 minutes). Then add the garlic and ginger to the skillet with the bell peppers and cook, stirring, until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Add the broth mixture to the pan with the pepper mixture. Bring to boil. When boiling, add the shrimp and peanuts and simmer until the sauce has thickened, about 1 minute. Make sure the shrimp are done (but not overcooked).
