Directions
Slippery Shrimp, This recipe comes from the Yang Chow restaurant in the Chinatown section of Los Angeles. It was in the March 2008 issue of Bon Apetit in the R.S.V.P. section. When the chef was developing this recipe the slick cornstarch coating caused the shrimp to slide off the plate, hence the name! Serve this slightly sweet and slightly spicy dish with a side of steamed rice., I too seen this recipe in the Bon Appetite mag and it was simply the best!! I have made it many many many times and it is excellent. Follow the recipe exactly and you won’t be disappointed!!
