Ingredients

• 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 0.25 cup low-sodium gluten-free soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons water
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 carrot, thinly sliced
• 3 green onions, sliced
• 2 cups cooked jasmine rice

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Stir well to create the marinade.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth, then set aside.

Step 3

Place the shrimp in a medium bowl and pour half of the marinade over them. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp in a single layer and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, carrot slices, and half of the green onions. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

Step 6

Return the shrimp to the skillet and pour in the remaining marinade. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Add the cornstarch mixture to the skillet, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

Remove from heat and garnish with the remaining green onions.

Step 9

Serve the shrimp stir-fry over cooked jasmine rice.
