2 Tsp Sugar
1/2 Cup Chicken Broth
1/2 Tsp Sesame Oil
1 Tsp Rice Vinegar

2 Tsp Cornstarch
1 Pound Jumbo Raw Shrimp Deveined
2 Tbs Vegetable Oil

DIRECTIONS

If the shrimp is frozen, defrost the shrimp first. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towel.
Bring a medium fry pan to medium high heat. Add in oil and sear the shrimps about 30 seconds on each side and place the shrimp into a bowl and set aside.

Return pan to stove and add in remainder ingredients. Bring the sauce mixture to a boil and turn down to medium heat for the sauce to thicken up a bit. Cook sauce for 3 minutes and add the shrimp back into the pan.
