Instructions

Combine all shrimp ingredients in a bowl and toss to coat evenly. Set aside to marinate at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
While the shrimp marinates, prepare the salad. Combine all salad ingredients in a bowl and toss to coat evenly. Set aside.
Prepare the peanut sauce by whisking all sauce ingredients together until smooth. Add water as needed to thin to desired consistency. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.
Cook in a large nonstick pan over high heat, flipping when opaque on one side, about 2 minutes, then cook until opaque on the second side, another minute or two.
Serve with sauce drizzled over top and pea salad along the side.

Notes

You can also grill these. Thread the shrimp onto skewers and grill on high heat, about 2 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
