The soy-honey-sherry sauce gives these shrimp fabulous Chinese flavor. Add crunch and color with broccoli and red pepper if desired. Serve over brown rice if desired. Because shrimp cook so quickly, it's easy to either overcook or undercook them when you are sauté them. We suggest cooking them over medium-high heat for best results and adding them at the end of the cooking process. Another secret to getting perfectly cooked shrimp is to select shrimp that are all the same size. And be certain to spread them out in the pain so that one is not on top of the other.
