Ingredients

For the Dish:

  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined Fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup broccoli florets Fresh or frozen
  • 1 tablespoon oil Neutral oil like canola or avocado
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced Fresh
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, minced Fresh
  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions

Cooking Instructions:

  • Start by mincing the garlic and ginger. Set them aside. If you’re using fresh broccoli, wash and cut it into bite-sized florets. If you’re using frozen, measure out one cup and set it to thaw slightly.
  • In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, it’s ready for the next step.
  • Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan. Sauté for about 30 seconds until they become fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
  • Toss in the shrimp, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently. The shrimp will turn pink and opaque as they cook.
  • Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and continue cooking for another 3-5 minutes, until the broccoli is tender but still crisp.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and soy sauce. Pour the mixture over the shrimp and broccoli in the skillet, stirring well to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Once everything is coated in the luscious honey garlic sauce, remove it from the heat. Serve warm, over a bed of rice or on its own, and enjoy!
