sizzling hot tangerine shrimp
★★★★★
1
A spicy/sweet shrimp stir fry. You can cook the rice while you prep and cook the shrimp. This seems like a lot of steps and ingredients, but once you start cooking it goes really fast. Prep time may be less if you purchase peeled and deveined shrimp instead of shell on.
