There are some foods that are simply made for each other, like shrimp and rice. In this sweet and sour shrimp recipe, we marry those two ingredients in a one-of-a-kind sauce that is so delicious. It starts with shrimp, and the key here is the seasoning. Since the dish really only has these two components, the shrimp is what really packs the flavor. Try and reserve an hour for the shrimp to marinate, as that will intensify the flavors. Without that portion of the process though, this recipe takes 20 minutes and serves four, so it's a great, quick dinner to make for the whole family.
