shrimp chinese

here is another alternative for a shrimp main dish or stir fry presentation.  i use jumbo shrimp, clean them and remove the tails.  grill shrimp in a skillet and season with salt, pepper or your favorite shrimp seasoning. 

next, add a selection of vegetables to taste.  i have added fresh broccoli, shredded carrots, canned or fresh mushrooms, water chestnuts or even bamboo shoots.  heat these before preparing the sauce.

i use 1/2 cup of orange marmalade and mix in 1/2 cup of hoisin sauce, heating in a saucepan prior to adding to the dish.  once the sauce is heated through, the dish is done and ready to serve.

this dish can be served with white or brown rice, and even with crispy rice noodles.  this is a great addition to an Asian buffet dinner or for an Asian themed meal. other meal options could include substituting out the shrimp and prepare with pork or chicken.  the sauce is very tasty and versatile.
