Eating this right now. Pretty good, will make again. Did tweak a bit with some fresh pineapple,and cilantro at end. Added about half cup more water, more garlic, and about I T crushed, red pepper for some zing. I used jumbo, wild, Argentinian shrimp...fantastic! Next time, I might throw in some cherry tomatoes also!

Another Pierre Dance winner. This makes up beautifully, with shrimp as well as in a shrimp/chicken combo.The ingredients combine to make for a company quality meal. The sesame oil and rice vinegar makes for a special touch. Love that it tastes as good as it looks. Served on a white platter- makes for awesome presentation. One of those recipes that one keeps close at hand. Thank you Pierre.

This is a great sauce. Although I made it with shrimp, it could easily be used on pork or chicken too. You can also vary the vegetables to suit your taste or what is in the fridge. Many thanks for sharing.

I was looking for something to do with a bag of large shrimps that I had in my freezer, and came across this recipe.I even went out and bought a large bottle of dry sherry (they didn't have a smaller bottle) So I will just have to make this again and again and again. I made this in my wok exactly as written , only I added a couple more splashes of the chicken broth. Served with rice. I can't wait to have this again. By the way the sauce was perfect and I will use that as a base for many other stir-frys.

Made this for supper last night. My cousin is allergic to garlic, so substituted it with lemongrass, and added about a quarter cup of fresh chopped cilantro... Holy Tastebud overload!!! Will certainly be making this again!
