KUNG PAO SHRIMP | RECIPES | WW USA
This easy weeknight recipe offers a lighter take on a Chinese classic with a blend of bold flavors, fresh vegetables, lean shrimp, and a mix of textures. Kung Pao Shrimp is traditionally spicy, but if you prefer a milder dish, you can reduce the amount of red pepper flakes to 1/8 teaspoon or even omit them entirely for a mild alternative. Substitute chicken or pork tenderloin for the shrimp, but just be sure to cut the meat into small, evenly sized pieces so that it cooks quickly and evenly in the wok. Sprinkle each serving with chopped peanuts for a wonderful crunch that works well with the flavors of this dish.
