Salt and Pepper Shrimp can apparently be found a several Chinese buffets; This may be a turn off to some people, if it is please feel free to remove the shell after cooking. Just as the name says, this recipe uses a lot of salt and pepper. It also uses ingredients such as fresh garlic and ginger. The flavors blend perfectly to create fantastic tasting shrimp. The shrimp are first deep fried for 20 seconds, and then fried in the wok for another 20 seconds. This is another fantastic Chinese recipe. Enjoy.
