Shrimp Stir Fry

Step 1

Place the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, honey and sesame oil in a small pot over medium high heat.

Step 2

Stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Turn up heat to high and bring to a boil.

Step 3

Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water until dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the sauce and boil for 1-2 minutes or until sauce has thickened. Set sauce aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5

Cook for 3-5 minutes or until vegetables have started to brown and soften. Add 2 tablespoons of water and cook, until water has evaporated. When your vegetables are crisp tender remove them from the pan and set aside.

Step 6

Wipe out the pan. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the pan over high heat.

Step 7

Place the shrimp in the pan and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until just cooked through (shrimp should be pink and opaque).

Step 8

Add the vegetables back to the pan. Pour the sauce over the top and cook for 1-2 minutes over medium high heat until warmed through.

Step 9

Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired.
