Braised Shrimp in Beer

This **Beer-Braised Spicy Shrimp** recipe is a mouthwatering dish that combines succulent shrimp with bold, aromatic flavors.

Aromatic onions, ginger, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, and dried chili peppers create a fragrant base, while a full bottle of beer adds depth and richness. Simmered with cooking wine, light soy sauce, sugar, and salt, the shrimp soak up the savory-sweet sauce, resulting in a perfectly balanced dish with a hint of spice. Ideal for seafood lovers, this recipe delivers tender, flavorful shrimp with a rich, slightly spicy broth—perfect over rice or enjoyed on its own. Quick to prepare yet packed with restaurant-quality taste, it’s a must-try for an impressive weeknight meal or a flavorful appetizer.
