Ingredients
Instructions
Prep the Shrimp
Insert a toothpick into the second tail segment to pull out the vein. Trim off the legs and antennae. Use scissors to slice along the back of the shrimp to butterfly them.
Marinate
Toss the cleaned shrimp with salt, cooking wine, and white pepper. Massage the seasonings into the meat and let sit for 20 minutes.
Stir-Fry Aromatics
Heat oil in a wok over medium heat. Fry the dried chilies and Sichuan peppercorns until fragrant and slightly dark. Add garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the scallions, sautéing until golden.
Sear the Shrimp
Turn the heat to high. Add the marinated shrimp and stir-fry quickly until they turn pink and curl. Toss in the green scallions and serve immediately while sizzling.
