Salt and Pepper Shrimp
Recipe by Cook! Stacey Cook
A quick, easy, and crispy Chinese‑style salt and pepper shrimp that’s pan‑fried, not deep‑fried. The shrimp are lightly coated in cornstarch, then tossed with garlic, onion, green onion, red bell pepper and a quick toast of white pepper, black pepper and salt for a savory, crunchy bite. Perfect for a weeknight dinner served over rice.
