Ingredients

• 1 pound raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 medium red bell pepper (sliced)
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 2 medium carrots (sliced into thin rounds)
• 2 stalks green onions (chopped)
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Set aside.

Step 2

In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and fully cooked. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to the skillet and toss in the bell pepper, broccoli, and carrots. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.

Step 6

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet with the vegetables.

Step 7

Pour the honey ginger sauce into the skillet and stir to coat the shrimp and vegetables evenly.

Step 8

Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.

Step 9

Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 10
