Default REC: Shrimp with White Pepper

Had this tonight and had forgot how good it is. It's from the Lotus
Garden in Hyannis, MA, via the Cape Cod Times.

SHRIMP WITH WHITE PEPPER

3/4 pound shrimp, shelled
1 egg white
2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 cup red or green peppers, cut in 1/2-inch squares
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup scallions, cut in 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/2-1 teaspoon ground white pepper

Marinate shrimp in mixture of egg white and cornstarch. Cook quickly
in hot oil, turning once; remove. Stir-fry vegetables 2 minutes or
until tender. Add shrimp and stir for 1 minute. Add salt and pepper;
stir.

Note: This doesn't list any cooking of oil. I use just enough to cook
the shrimp, and then remove some to leave just enough for the
vegetables.
