Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 4 cups cooked white or brown rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Set aside.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until pink and opaque. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the bell pepper, broccoli, and carrots. Stir fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the shrimp to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour in the prepared hoisin sauce mixture and stir to coat the ingredients evenly.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir well. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the shrimp and vegetables.
Drizzle sesame oil over the stir fry and mix briefly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve hot over cooked white or brown rice, if preferred. Enjoy!
