I made this as directed except I didn't have red pepper and I didn't use sugar. I also added several tablespoons of siracha sauce. It really was very good. I always wondered about the proportions for the sauce and this recipe answered the question. My version was obviously spicier than the recipe. Well worth making.

Gettin close to that perfect shrimp stir fry recipe I'm looking for! This recipe is really good, the only change I made was right before everything was finished. I tasted the sauce and thought it was waaay too sweet.... so I added around 1 tsp salt and that seemed to balance it out. The only downside is the shrimp that were so crunchy to start progressively get more soggy as you eat, but I don't think theres a way to fix that.

Delicious and healthy. My family enjoyed it too! I added a lot of veggies-broccoli, snow peas, yellow squash, carrots, red and green peppers in addition to the veggies called for. Also added red chile flakes for some heat and a little chopped jalapeño. I will definitely make this again maybe using chicken in lieu of shrimp! I also threw in some slivered almonds for some extra crunch and just because I love them!

I hate to give Brian Boitano stars, but I just wasn't a fan of this recipe. The sauce had an odd taste to me. LOVE LOVE LOVE Brian Boitano though, and I wish there were new episodes of his show. It was one of my favorite shows to watch on Food Network and most of his recipes are fabulous.

The recipe suggested this meal would take an hour to make but I did it in about 30 minutes. I'm not a fan of water chestnuts so I substituted some chopped celery instead which gave the same crunchy texture. I also used scallions instead of the onions. My shrimp stuck to the bottom of the pan when I fried it which made whatever coating the cornstarch gave it come off. And it used a lot of oil for such a little bit of shrimp. If I make this again I will skip this step and just add the un-cornstarched shrimp in with the veggies. The sauce was very tasty but it was missing some heat. I would add some siracha next time. I think this would also work well with cubed tofu for vegetarian diets. Overall a delicious, quick and healthy meal.

This dish was very tasty! However, I would not call it "easy" especially since I don't have a wok or the appropriate gas burner to get a wok hot enough. I have a cheap electric stove and one 10" skillet. I did manage to recreate the recipe and it tasted yummy but was a messy process with the corn starch and needing to drain the oil in between the shrimp and the stir-fry of the veg. If you have a wok and a good stove it might be easier.

My family loved this dish. The sauce was full of flavor and delicious, my favorite. I added a tablespoon of hoisin sauce for more Asian flavor, added scallions instead of onions and added extra garlic. I will definetely add the receipe to my menu book.
