Begin by prepping all ingredients: peel and devein the shrimp, slice the vegetables, and mince the garlic and ginger.
In a small bowl, mix the gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, honey or maple syrup, cornstarch, and water until well combined. Set the sauce aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, and season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the carrot, broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and snap peas to the skillet. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir everything together, making sure the sauce coats the shrimp and vegetables evenly.
Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
Serve immediately over cooked rice or rice noodles if preferred. Enjoy your dish!
