SWEET AND SOUR SHRIMP

Steps:

• Whisk together honey, rice vinegar, tomato paste, pineapple juice, and soy sauce for sweet and sour sauce in a medium bowl. Whisk together water and cornstarch for thickener in another bowl. Set both aside.
• Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Combine shrimp, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; toss to season.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and the sesame oil in a wok or large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add shrimp in a single layer to the hot oil; cook for 1 minute without stirring. Stir and cook for another 30 seconds. Transfer to a clean plate.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the wok. When heated, add bell pepper and zucchini; stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add pineapple; stir-fry for 30 seconds.
• Pour in the reserved sweet and sour sauce; stir and cook until simmering, about 2 minutes.
• Whisk the cornstarch mixture again, then gradually add it to the center of the wok; stir constantly until sauce has thickened, about 30 seconds.

• Remove 1/2 cup of sauce and combine with cornstarch in a small bowl. Whisk until well blended and orange zest starts to dissolve.
• Raise heat under the saucepan and bring the sauce to a slow boil, about 5 minutes. Mix cornstarch mixture into the sauce. Stir occasionally until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool a bit, about 3 minutes.

SWEET AND SOUR SHRIMP

Steps:

• To make the sauce, in a bowl, combine 1/4 cup of stock, the ketchup, sugar, juice, vinegar, soy, and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper flakes. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with the remaining 2 tablespoons of stock and stir to dissolve. Set aside.
• In a bowl, toss the shrimp with the ginger, garlic, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper flakes. Set aside for 10 to 20 minutes.
• Heat a large wok over high heat. Add the oil, swirling to coat the sides and bottom of the pan. Add the shrimp, garlic, and ginger and stir-fry until pink, about 2 minutes. Remove from the pan. Add the onions and peppers and stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add the sauce and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Add the cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil. Return the shrimp to the pan and add the pineapples, cherries, and green onions. Cook until the sauce is thick, about 1 minute.

SWEET AND SOUR SHRIMP & VEGETABLES

Steps:

• In a large skillet or in a wok, heat your oil to medium heat, and then add the carrot, tossing very frequently.
• Allow the carrot to cook for about 4 minutes.
• Then add your onion, and cook for another 4 minutes or so, and then add your garlic, cooking for another minute or so.
• In a liquid measuring cup, add your soy sauce, brown sugar, juice, vinegar and cayenne.
• Add your liquid mixture to the skillet and bring to a heavy simmer.
• Add your shrimp, and cook until your shrimp is done (pink on both sides) approximately 3-4 minutes.
• Don't overcook your shrimp.
• At this time, you can throw in your pineapple chunks if you wish to use them.
• While your shrimp is cooking, mix your cornstarch with approximately 4-5 tablespoons of water (just enough to make it a liquid mixture-you may need a little more or a little less because I never measure the amount of water I use).
• Add the cornstarch mixture to your pan, and sir constantly until thick- this will not take very long at all.
• You may turn your heat down to medium-low.
• Serve with rice.
• ENJOY!
