15 minutes
Ginger shrimp is an exquisite dish of Chinese cuisine that harmoniously combines the freshness of seafood with spicy Eastern aromas. Ginger traditionally used in Chinese gastronomy adds brightness and a slight spiciness to the sauce, while soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar create a rich, balanced flavor. Historically, shrimp have been widely used in the cuisines of China's coastal regions where seafood has always played a key role. Serving it with an aromatic sauce makes this dish an ideal complement to rice or noodles. Ginger shrimp is not only delicious but also healthy due to its combination of protein and healthy fats. Exquisite yet simple to prepare, it is perfect for an Eastern-style dinner.
