Preparation SWEET AND SOUR SHRIMP RECIPE

  • Clean the shrimp by removing the shell and black vein.

    Rinse them well and pat them dry with paper towels.

  • Place them in a bowl to marinate with ketchup, honey, and a little oil, mixing to blend the ingredients and their flavors.

    Chop a little chili pepper together with some garlic (I say little, but do according to your tastes and… your stomachs) and add them to the shrimp.

  • Mix the ingredients well, and after covering the bowl with plastic wrap, place everything in the refrigerator to marinate for about an hour at least.

  • After the time has passed, heat a non-stick pan well, and after draining the shrimp from the marinade, sauté them for 4-5 minutes.

  • For the sauce, mix the Greek yogurt with a little oil and white vinegar.

  • Chop the parsley and sprinkle both the sauce and the shrimp with this herb, then serve the sweet and sour shrimp at the table.

    Enjoy your meal with the sweet and sour shrimp!
