Today’s Unique Dish: Spicy Peanut Butter Shrimp Stir-Fry

Hey there, foodies! Today, I am excited to share with you my latest creation — a Spicy Peanut Butter Shrimp Stir-Fry. The inspiration for this dish came to me when I was craving something savory with a kick of heat and a creamy finish. This recipe is perfect for those who love bold flavors and want to try something different for dinner tonight.

Ingredients:

  • 500g shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 large bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 50g roasted peanuts, chopped
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce

Kitchen Tools:

  • wok
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • grater
  • measuring spoons

To start, heat the wok over medium-high heat and add the cooking oil. Once hot, add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until fragrant. Next, add the bell pepper slices and shrimp, and cook until the shrimp is pink and cooked through.

In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sriracha sauce, peanut butter, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Pour this sauce over the shrimp and vegetables in the wok, and toss to coat everything evenly. Let it simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Finally, add the chopped peanuts to the stir-fry and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Give everything a final stir, and remove from heat.

This Spicy Peanut Butter Shrimp Stir-Fry is best served hot over steamed rice or noodles. The creamy peanut butter sauce complements the spicy sriracha perfectly, creating a flavor explosion in every bite. With the crunchy peanuts added in, this dish hits all the right notes of texture and taste.
