Directions: 
  1. Preheat skillet over medium heat. When several drops of water sprinkled on skillet skitter and dissipate, add shrimp. Sauté for 2 - 3 minutes, until cooked through and firm. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  2. Add onions and peppers. Sauté for 3 - 4 minutes until softened, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add mushrooms, stir to combine and sauté for 4 - 5 minutes.
  4. Place baby spinach on top of sautéed vegetables and add shrimp over top, spreading them out over the spinach.
  5. Place cover on skillet. When Vapo-Valve™ begins to click steadily, reduce heat to low and cook for 2 minutes.
  6. In a small bowl mix together chili paste, stock, vinegar, arrowroot and hot sauce. Stir thoroughly to combine.
  7. Remove cover and pour sauce over shrimp and vegetables, using a spoon to carefully stir sauce into vegetables and shrimp. Cook an additional 1 - 2 minutes, until sauce is thickened.
  8. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more hot sauce or a pinch of salt.
  9. Serve as is or with rice, couscous or over thin rice noodles.
Tips: 
  • Substitute shrimp for cubed firm fleshed fish or chicken.
  • Many fish markets sell house made fish stock. Freeze fish stock into small ½ - 1 cup portion sizes to use when making a quick sauce.
  • Slice and freeze extra peppers and onions when using your Saladmaster Food Processor so they are handy for quick meals.
