How to Make Red Garlic Shrimp

  1. Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. This helps them brown better.
  2. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering.
  3. Add shrimp and stir-fry until pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from wok and set aside.
  4. Add minced garlic to the wok and stir-fry for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
  5. Stir in tomato puree, soy sauce, sherry or white wine, sugar, and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer.
  6. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally, until sauce slightly thickens.
  7. Return shrimp to the wok. Toss to coat evenly in the sauce.
  8. Remove from heat. Stir in sliced scallions.
  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Serve immediately over rice or noodles (optional).
