Shrimp with Ginger and Snow Peas

Read Reviews (7)

"This light, Spring shrimp dish is highly flavored with caramelized onions, ginger, garlic, and cilantro. It's great served over couscous!" — flash1400

Directions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, and cook until they turn golden brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and ginger, cook for 1 minute, then pour in wine, and bring to a boil.
Add the shrimp, and cook until they begin to turn pink, about 3 minutes. Add snow peas, and cook until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in chopped cilantro and serve immediately.

This was very tasty. I did not have fresh ginger so I used ground ginger (only ½ teaspoon). Wish I had the fresh ginger. When I make it again, which I well, fresh ginger is on the list. I served it with Spinach and Red Pepper Couscous which you can find on this site, lovely combination. PS don’t forget the wine:)

I thought it was a little bland. It's a good base but it needs something else. My husband added soy sauce to his and that seemed to help. I think maybe add some soy sauce in place of part of the wine and a little lemon juice to finish it and maybe some red pepper flakes in with onions for heat.

I couldn't believe it, but the wine with ginger was very tasty. My folks liked it too. I added some more veggis, such as fresh bean sprouts and served it with basmati rice cooked in coconut milk.

Good recipe. I added a little more ginger and 1/4 tsp of red pepper flakes.

This was a good dish, but lacked a little zip even though I used the fresh ginger. I dislike cilantro so I omitted it entirely and added sliced water chestnuts. If I were to make it again, I would add pepper flakes just to give the flavor a little boost.

My whole family really liked this! I made white rice with coconut milk and it was devoured. Good stuff.
