Simple, easy and tasty..... agree with other reviewers that it's better to use low-sodium ingredients as it's pretty heavy on the sodium count other wise..... but it tastes amazing! Even my super -fussy-raised-in-the-Caribbean-hot-chilli-sauce-husband thought it was good. Thanks for the recipe!!

Good recipe and great flavor. I doubled everything except soy sauce but thought it was still a bit salty. Next time I'll either use light soy or use half of the amount called for. Will definitely be making this again!

I was looking for something to use up some shrimp from my freezer - this was delicious! For ZWT6 N family picks.

Pretty good recipe! I doubled the sauce - at least! - but I used low-sodium soy sauce, and didn't have any problems with it being salty. I also used fresh ginger, and added some red pepper flakes with the cayenne pepper. I threw in the onions at the same time as the garlic; probably should have added them with the shrimp instead. Easy and tasty, something I'll be making again!
