Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 cups cooked jasmine rice

3 tablespoons honey

3 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium preferred)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon ginger, minced

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 bell pepper (red or yellow), sliced

1 cup snap peas, trimmed

1 carrot, julienned

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Sauce: In a small mixing bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Whisk until well blended and set aside.

    Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced bell pepper, snap peas, and julienned carrot. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

      Cook the Shrimp: In the same skillet, add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and opaque. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan; you may need to do this in batches.

        Combine Ingredients: Once the shrimp are cooked, return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the shrimp and vegetables. Toss everything together, ensuring the shrimp and veggies are evenly coated. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce is heated through.

          Serve: Fluff the cooked jasmine rice with a fork. Serve the shrimp and vegetable stir-fry over a bed of rice. Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for an extra crunch.

            Enjoy: Serve hot and enjoy your Sweet & Savory Honey Garlic Shrimp Stir-Fry!
