This dinner went from skillet to table in less than 15 minutes and was a one pot special. Gotta love a speedy weeknight meal. Or a speedy any night meal. It also was a freezer and refrigerator drawer use what I have on-hand special.
I used shrimp from the freezer that I thawed, an assortment of vegetables, some of which were fresh, some were previously frozen, doused it all in Szechuan sauce and a drizzle of oil. That’s it and then I sauteed it for 5 minutes.
I portioned the food onto plates, put previously cooked rice into the same skillet, Szechuan sauce remnants and all, cracked an egg and stirred, and the fried rice was done in a hot second.
The family was in such a rush to eat, I didn’t take rice pictures so use your imagination. It’s rice. The star of the meal was the meat and potatoes the shrimp and veggies, and it received rave reviews.
Skylar loved it and chugged about 16 ounces of water throughout the meal and told me how spicy it was, but how good it was.
I think the Szechuan sauce has a little ka-ka kick. Scott said that it was spicy but not ridiculously so.
Then again, my idea of spicy and yours may differ since I can eat Hot Pepper Jelly with jalepeno peppers and serano chiles by the spoonful.
