Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 large bell peppers, sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 medium carrot, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 4 servings cooked rice or noodles
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add shrimp to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced bell peppers, broccoli florets, and carrot to the skillet. Stir fry the vegetables for 5-7 minutes until they are crisp-tender.
Return the shrimp to the skillet and pour the soy sauce mixture over the shrimp and vegetables. Stir to combine everything, making sure the sauce evenly coats the ingredients.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Remove from heat and sprinkle the stir fry with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles.
