# Ginisang Hipon (Sautéed Shrimp) Recipe - Made In

Chef Melissa Miranda’s take on ginisang hipon, or sautéed shrimp, comes paired with a patis (or fish sauce) chimichurri and makes for a delicious starter or main.

In her recipe for ginisang hipon (a Filipino sautéed shrimp dish), Chef Melissa Miranda of Musang in Seattle turns to an ingredient that most American home cooks overlook: Sprite. Lemon-lime soda is a common staple used in numerous Filipino meat-based dishes from adobo to barbecue, and with good reason. Here, it deglazes the pan, helps with caramelization, and adds a degree of acid to the dish.

The other key ingredient—at least according to Chef Miranda—is patis (fish sauce). Used as a seasoning, it deepens and fortifies the flavor of whatever it touches, lending that bit of salty savoriness needed to offset the bright herbal notes of the chimichurri and the subtle sweetness of the shrimp.
