Notes
Tips for making this recipe:
- Want a less spicy dish? Swap out the sweet Thai chili sauce for sweet & sour sauce.
- I use pre-cooked shrimp to save time. If using uncooked shrimp prepare and cook according to package directions.
- To store: Add to a covered container and eat within 3 days. To reheat 1/2 the sauce and add it to the leftovers in a saute pan, heat through and serve.
