- 1 pound Shrimp peeled and deveined
- salt and pepper to taste
- 6 ounces sugar snap peas
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2-3 Jalapeno peppers or use hotter peppers to your preference – I used 2 jalapenos and 1 serrano pepper
FOR THE SPICY SAUCE
- 1.5 tablespoon Gochujang
- 1.5 tablespoons hot paprika or use 1/2 tablespoon cayenne + 1/2 tablespoon sweet paprika – you can use other spicier chili powders as well
- 4 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon corn starch mixed with 1 tablespoon water
- FOR SERVING: Cooked rice or noodles
- FOR GARNISH if desired: Sesame seeds, spicy red pepper flakes, fresh chopped parsley, extra sliced peppers .
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a pan over medium high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper and cook them 2-3 minutes per side, until they are cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- Add more oil if needed and add the snap peas, broccoli and peppers. Cook them 8-9 minutes to soften, stirring often.
- Make the sauce by whisking together the gochujang, hot paprika, sesame oil, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, garlic powder, ginger and chicken stock in a bowl.
- Pour the sauce into the pan with the vegetables. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes.
- Add the corn starch slurry and stir. It should thicken quickly.
- Add the shrimp back to the pan and heat them through, about 2 minutes.
- Serve with cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds, spicy red pepper flakes, fresh chopped parsley and extra sliced peppers.
