A simple spicy Oriental Shrimp I use from time to time with success is as followed:

In a hot skillet coat pan with Olive oil and add a few cloves of garlic and a healthy pinch of crushed red pepper flakes. Let that sizzle foe a minute or two and pop the shrimp in the skillet. When the shrimp looks close to cooked add in a quarter of a cup of soy sauce and stir for a another minute. Squeeze a quarter of a lemon juice over skillet, add some fresh chopped parsley, toss and serve. You won't be dissapointed. To turn into meal over rice or noodle simply add sliced veggies (zuccini, carrot, onion, brocolli,celery, whatever) when you add the shrimp and after a few minutes of stir fry deglaze the skillet with a quarter to half cup of chicken or fish stock and follow the recipe from before.

It is also not hard to carry and the only extra thing needed is a large spoon. You can put rubber bands around the handles and across the lid to keep it in place while it is carried. So, if all the other food is cold and you food is HOT; that would be WOW.
