GARLIC & CHILI PRAWNS

Garlic & Chili Prawns image

I've always love crustacean dishes...especially prawns. In my hometown in Davao City, Philippines, there's one famous seafood resto that offers the best garlic prawns. I improved the dish by making it more spicy by adding...red and green chili peppers for that "kick".

CHILI GARLIC PRAWNS

Chili Garlic Prawns image

What could be simpler than this recipe? I like to serve it with rice and an Asian vegetable mixture (I get mine from the frozen food section of my grocery store).

Time 21m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 lb shrimp prawns, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons chili-garlic sauce, such as Lee Kum Kee brand (usually in the Asian section)
1 green onion, sliced

Steps:

(If serving with a frozen vegetable mixture and rice, start cooking them while you peel and devein the shrimp. When the vegetables and rice are done, keep them warm and start cooking the prawns -- it will take only a few minutes.).
Heat oil in wok or skillet. Add prawns and stir-fry until just pink.
Add chili garlic sauce and stir-fry until prawns are completely cooked, just about 2-4 minutes more, depending on the size of your shrimp. Sprinkle with green onion and serve.
