Ingredients
- 4 teaspoons vegetable oil divided use
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 1 1/2 pounds Shrimp peeled and deveined, large
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- ¼ cup orange juice
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons corn starch
- 1 tablespoon water cold
- 2 tablespoons green onion sliced
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
Instructions
- Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add the broccoli and cook for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender.
- Season the broccoli with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the broccoli from the pan and cover to keep warm. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel.
- Add the rest of the oil in the pan. Place the shrimp in a pan in a single layer. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper.
- Cook the shrimp for 1-2 minutes per side or until pink and opaque.
- Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Return the broccoli to the pan.
- In a medium bowl whisk together the orange juice, honey and soy sauce.
- In a small bowl mix the corn starch with a tablespoon of cold water.
- Pour the soy sauce mixture over the shrimp and broccoli, then cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the corn starch mixture to the pan and bring to a boil; cook for 1 more minute or until sauce has just started to thicken.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions, then serve.
Notes
- Leftovers will stay fresh in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- You can remove the tails from your shrimp before you add them to the stir fry, or leave the tails on for a more elegant presentation.
- I typically use 21-25 count shrimp.
