    * Add fried shrimp and candied walnuts to the mayo mixture and toss gently. Serve immediately over steamed rice.
    * OPTIONAL: Add 25%-50% more sauce ingredients if you want things a bit juicier.

  22. I had a variation of this dish, Gran Marnier shrimp. Tasted similar to this except chef added orange flavor. Couldn’t quite discern if it was Gran marnier liquor and or some orange zest added to mayo sauce

  38. My favorite dish is Shrimp and Snow Peas in brown sauce with white rice. WOW. I eat it at least 2× a week. I love it so much. It's been my go to meal for at least 9 years now. I've started growing Mammoth Snow Peas so I get the biggest softest edible pea pods. Wish I had access to large shrimp. But here in the Midwest that's hard to find fresh.
