Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 lb peeled and deveined large shrimp to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until shrimp begin to turn pink and opaque.
  3. Step 3: Toss in 1 medium thinly sliced red bell pepper and 1 cup snap peas. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes until vegetables remain crisp-tender.
  4. Step 4: Mix 3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tsp sesame oil in a small bowl, then pour into the wok. Stir everything together and cook for 1 more minute until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the shrimp and vegetables.
