Szechwan Shrimp

Time for something light and flavorful...and once again, shrimp are very reasonably priced.   I asked for 12 medium shrimp, six each which is probably what you would receive in any Thai restaurant.  Price....$2.35 for two servings!!   That is a deal to me. 

My usual Szechwan recipes are from my  to go  source, Chinese Food.   This is my version of a great classic.
