Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat canola oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add onion, garlic, and ginger; cook and stir until just fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add shrimp, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes; cook and stir until shrimp is slightly pink, about 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in beer, ketchup, and sugar; bring sauce to a boil.
Step 2
Dissolve cornstarch in water, and stir into boiling sauce. Cook until the sauce returns to a boil and thickens, the shrimp are bright pink on the outside, and no longer transparent in the center, about 2 minutes more. Stir in sesame oil; remove from heat. Sprinkle with green onions and serve.
