Salt and Pepper Shrimp 鹽酥蝦

This dish truly is a showstopper. Served with or without the head. Either way, don't let this easy recipe fool you. This aromatic crunchy shrimp dish serves up a big bold punch of flavor. It's a street food staple and a must at Chinese wedding banquets. Enjoy with a bowl of rice or just a simple glass of beer. I found that this dish is always best shared with friends.
