GARLIC SHRIMP WITH CHILI CRISP



This garlic shrimp recipe is nothing like you’ve ever tasted before! We’ve the taken the classic recipe and turned it upside down to bring you garlic shrimps that are smoky, salty, nutty and with just enough heat to make you reach for a spoonful of rice. It’s insanely delicious!


Chili crisp is so good that Ben and I managed to go through an entire jar in less than a week. We put it on white rice, made a vegetable stir fry, used it in a mushroom mapo tofu recipe and threw a spoonful of it into this amazing garlic shrimp dish. This stuff is mind blowing delicious!
