Braised Shrimp in Oil

This succulent Garlic Ginger Shrimp is a quick and flavorful dish that brings out the natural sweetness of shrimp with a savory, umami-rich glaze. Fresh shrimp are marinated in a blend of cooking wine, soy sauce, and sugar for a perfect balance of sweet and salty, then pan-fried with aromatic scallions and ginger for a fragrant depth of flavor. The key to this dish lies in the caramelized glaze—simmered until the sauce thickens, coating each shrimp in a glossy, irresistible finish. Ready in minutes, this dish is ideal for a weeknight dinner or an impressive appetizer. The combination of tender shrimp, bold aromatics, and a sticky-sweet sauce makes every bite unforgettable. Serve hot for a restaurant-quality meal at home!
