Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb raw shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 head broccoli chopped
  • 2 bell peppers sliced
  • 2 cups snow peas
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 green onion for garnish
Sauce Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch

Equipment

  • Large, deep skillet
  • Slotted spoon

Method
 

  1. Whisk the sauce ingredients together and set the mixture aside.
  2. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and set it aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining oil, broccoli, peppers, and peas. Sauté until the peppers are blistered, which takes 5 to 6 minutes. Then, add the garlic and the reserved shrimp and sauté for 1 additional minute.
  4. Reduce the heat to low. Pour in the sauce and stir for 10 seconds or until the sauce thickens and coats everything.
  5. Top the stir fry with green onion. Serve over rice.

Notes

You can use cooked shrimp instead of raw. If you do, simply thaw it then cook it in the skillet for a few minutes. Other vegetables you could use include carrots, edamame, mushrooms, and cauliflower.
