Bangin good shrimp

Another favorite! www.skinnytaste.com is probably my favorite cooking blog. I think I have said that before. http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/05/bangin-good-shrimp.html There's a link straight to the original recipe.
Here's what I did....
For the Shrimp:

  • 1 lb large shrimp, shelled and deveined (weight after peeled)
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp canola oil
  • 3 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
  • 4 tbsp scallions, chopped
*I would use smaller shrimp next time. Easier to bite and cook.
*I used a premixed coleslaw bag instead of lettuce and cabbage.


*I just mixed together random amounts until it tasted the way I wanted. :)

 Directions:


In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, Thai sweet chili sauce and Sriracha. Set aside.
Combine lettuce and cabbage and divide between four plates. Set aside.

Coat shrimp with cornstarch, mixing well with your hands.
Heat a large skillet or wok on high heat, when hot add oil. When oil is hot add the shrimp to hot pan and cook tossing a few times until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from pan and combine with the sauce coating well.
Place shrimp on lettuce and top with scallions.

*I made them as tacos so I put everything in a tortilla.

Yummo!!!
