How to Make Spicy Shrimp Saute
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons red curry paste, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 tablespoon sambal oelek, and 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce.
- Add 1 pound shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the spice mixture.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
- Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to the hot skillet. Once the oil begins to smoke, add the shrimp mixture.
- Sauté for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shrimp begin to turn pink.
- Add 2 scallions, thinly sliced, to the skillet.
- Cover the skillet and cook for 3 minutes, allowing the shrimp to cook through and the flavors to meld.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1/2 cup coconut milk.
- Cook for another 3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the shrimp are cooked through.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Serve immediately with rice or crusty bread.
