Ingredients
Scale
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 cup snap peas
1 cup broccoli florets
2 green onions, sliced
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
Cooked rice or quinoa, for serving
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the red bell pepper, snap peas, and broccoli. Stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the shrimp to the skillet and pour the honey garlic sauce over the mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve over cooked rice or quinoa.
Notes
For added heat, include a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha in the sauce.
Substitute the shrimp with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
