- 2 tablespoons chili crisp, divided, plus more for serving
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil, plus more if needed
- 2 shallots, peeled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
- 12 ounces fresh green beans
- 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
- Salt and pepper

Instructions
Prepare the shrimp:
- Pat the shrimp dry and place in a bowl with 1 tablespoon chili crisp. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Refrigerate until needed.
Cook the shallots and almonds:
- Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the shallots and cook for 2–3 minutes. Add the almonds and cook for 2–3 minutes until toasted and golden brown. Transfer the shallots and almonds to a bowl.
Sauté the green beans:
- If needed, add another teaspoon of oil to the skillet, and keep the heat at medium. Once hot, add the green beans and season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, for 4–5 minutes until almost tender-crisp.
- Add the chili garlic sauce and cook for 1–2 minutes, tossing to coat the green beans. Transfer the green beans to the bowl with the almonds and shallots.
- Carefully wipe out the skillet.
Cook the shrimp:
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon chili crisp to the skillet and turn the heat to medium-high.
- Pour in the shrimp and arrange into an even layer. Cook without moving for 2–3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2–3 minutes. Continue cooking until the shrimp are just barely cooked through.
- Turn off the heat and pour in the green beans, almonds, and shallots. Toss to coat, using the residual heat in the skillet to finish cooking the shrimp. Taste and season.
To serve:
- Arrange the shrimp and green beans on a serving platter. Serve with cooked white rice if you like. Enjoy!
