Shrimp Stir Fry
This Shrimp Stir Fry features a vibrant combination of sliced bell pepper, asparagus, broccoli, and snow peas cooked with large peeled and deveined shrimp. Tossed with a sauce made from soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, toasted sesame oil, hoisin sauce, and cornstarch, the dish offers a balance of savory, sweet, and slightly spicy flavors. The stir-fried vegetables add crisp texture to complement the tender shrimp, all served over white rice and garnished with sesame seeds.
