Sichuan shrimp stir fry with onions

by Anna Chwistek
Anna Chwistek

Stir fried shrimp with charred onions Sichuan peppercorns. Spicy, quick and flavorful soy-sauced dinner that comes together in 15 minutes.

What makes this stir-fry so great is the texture and the flavors. The base of this dish are the crispy onions and the thick soy sauce with plenty of garlic.
First you need to cook your rice (or noodles), then the rest of the cooking process moves pretty fast, so the key to nail this dish is to have all of your ingredients chopped and ready, because once you start stir-frying, there’s no turning back. Focus on your onions! For the best result, char the onions quickly on high heat but keep them a little crunchy inside. You can also add spinach, carrots or pak choi, but my favorite addition are shiitakes.

This sizzling spicy sichuan stir fry is also quick and easy to make with chicken or tofu. Feel free to make it as spicy or mild as you prefer!
Basically you can make this dish without having to go to the store to buy anything, which is why I always keep shrimps in my freezer and the rest are just pantry staples, right?
Can’t find Sichuan peppercorns? Swap them out with chili flakes.
