Default SPICY SICHUAN-STYLE SHRIMP

It's also called Chili Bean Paste.

Here's what it looks like:
http://www.amazon.com/Lee-Kum-CHILI-.../dp/B00024445G

This is from an Asian foods website:

chile bean paste = chili bean paste = chili bean sauce = chilli bean
sauce = bean paste with chili = hot bean paste

Notes: This reddish-brown sauce is made from fermented soybeans and hot
chilies. It's very hot. Regional versions include Sichuan hot bean
paste = Szechuan hot bean paste, and Korea's kochu chang = kochujang.

Substitutes: bean sauce + chile paste OR bean sauce + chopped chile peppers
