Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sriracha, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to create the sauce. Set aside.
In another small bowl, create a cornstarch slurry by mixing the cornstarch and water. 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 on each side until they turn pink and are opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet, followed by the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss to combine with the vegetables.
Pour the prepared sauce over the shrimp and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens, stirring constantly.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
