    Lemongrass Shrimp

    Ingredients:

    2 Tbs. peanut oil
    1 chili pepper, chopped
    2 small or 1 large stalk lemongrass, tender part only, sliced
    1 large clove garlic, chopped
    1 Tbs. chopped fresh ginger
    1 Kaffir lime leaf
    12 jumbo shrimp
    1/2 cup chicken broth

    Preparation:

    Process chili pepper, garlic and ginger until chopped fine. Stir-fry the garlic mixture, lemongrass and lime leaf in 1 tablespoon peanut oil for 1 minute, until fragrant. Add chicken broth and simmer for 15 minutes until the liquid almost evaporates. Remove the mixture from the pan.

    Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil to the pan and stir-fry shrimp until hot (if using cooked shrimp), or until pink (for raw shrimp). Return sauce to pan and mix well, until liquid evaporates. Serve immediately.

    Servings: 12 pieces

    Chef's Notes:

    • When using lemongrass use only the tender white part -- it is the part that is edible and digestible. The rest of the stalk can be used for seasoning, but be sure to remove it before serving.

    • Instead of Kaffir lime leaf, you can use two strips of lime peel.
