Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons Shaoxing rice wine (see Tip) or dry sherry
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium tamari
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 ounces thick-cut bacon, cut into ½-inch pieces
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
12 ounces peeled and deveined raw shrimp (21-25 count)
1 bunch scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
1½ cups chopped fresh pineapple (1-inch pieces)

Steps:

Combine chili sauce, rice wine (or sherry), tamari, water and cornstarch in a small bowl. Set next to the stove. Cook bacon in a large flat-bottom wok or large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a plate. Add bell pepper to the drippings in the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add shrimp, scallions, ginger and crushed red pepper; cook, stirring, until the shrimp are cooked through, about 2 minutes. Stir the reserved sauce and add to the pan along with pineapple and the bacon. Cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute more.
