Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, cornstarch, and water. Set this sauce mixture aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until pink and cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, snap peas, and carrot to the skillet. Stir fry for 3–4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Toss in the pineapple chunks and cooked shrimp, stirring to combine.
Pour the sauce mixture over the stir fry and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients evenly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onion.
Serve hot over steamed white rice, if desired. Enjoy your Shrimp and Pineapple Stir Fry!
