We serve a preference for the finger liking dinner in under 30 minutes. This Prawn / Shrimp Manchurian is a popular Indo-Pak Chinese dish throughout Chicago. Battered shrimp are fried and then tossed in an aromatic sweet and sour sauce with a hint of heat before being served with fried rice or noodles. This excellent combination tastes so delicious.

KUNG PAO SHRIMP
Kung Pao shrimp is a tasty favorite recipe. Tender, succulent shrimp, and bell peppers in a sweet-and-sour sauce is something everyone enjoys, from kids to adults. It’s the perfect meal, top with green onions and chopped peanuts. The flavor combination of kung pao sauce and shrimp works like magic. In this Kung Pao shrimp recipe, we use a moderate amount of Szechuan peppercorns, dried chilies, some bell peppers, and cashews in place of peanuts. Kung Pao shrimp is a combo of spicy and sweet, crisp, sautéed veggies with fresh shrimp.
This recipe’s sauce combines broth with bold flavors from soy sauce, hoisin, and sesame oil. A dash of chili flakes adds some spiciness (add a little or a lot). One of the most popular entrees on the Usmania Chinese takeout menu.
SHRIMP SZECHUAN
One of our absolute best Chinese seafood dishes has always been spicy Szechuan shrimp. These Szechuan shrimps stand out due to the spicy kick and layers of flavor from hot bean paste. Szechuan shrimp is spicy and flavorful, thanks to the addition of ginger, garlic, Szechuan pepper, and other flavorings. Szechuan peppercorns, also known as Sichuan peppercorns, are not peppercorns at all. They are the husks of a type of citrus seed.
Szechuan pepper is not as hot as chili pepper or even black pepper. Instead, it causes numbness in the mouth. This spice has a distinct flavor that is floral and citrusy. You’ll get a tingly, mouth-numbing sensation that you may find strangely pleasant when you eat it.
We make it with Tender shrimp encased in a concentrated spicy sauce that includes shallots, peppers, and delightfully nutty water chestnuts. It’s a perfectly orchestrated blend that genuinely distinguishes this dish.
CHILI GARLIC SHRIMP
Chili garlic shrimp is a fiery treat that comes together in no time. It is another popular Chinese takeout dish from the Usmania Chinese menu. Chop the aromatics, sear some jumbo tiger shrimp in a super-hot wok, and combine with our tasty chiefs’ unique sauce mixture for this lip-smacking Chili Garlic.
Indeed, it’s incredible how a few simple ingredients can be transformed into this delectable Chili Garlic Shrimp. We use butter, garlic, chili, a dash of lemon, and a tonne of fresh cilantro for this recipe. Also, we can serve it as an appetizer or rice topped with pan juice. They are thick, chunky ground red chilies used as condiments or cooking ingredients. In contrast to Sambal Oelek, Chili Garlic Sauce contains garlic.
The amount of chili may appear excessive at first glance, but trust me when we say it’s the kind of spicy you’ll crave. If fresh red chili isn’t your thing, we can substitute mild chili peppers or red chili flakes to your liking.
