Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sriracha, honey, rice vinegar, and cornstarch until well combined. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss in the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot. Stir fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, then pour the prepared sauce over everything. Toss to coat and cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Serve hot over cooked white or brown rice for a complete meal.
