Ingredients

• 1 pound Large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger (grated)
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
• 1.5 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
• 0.25 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 Red bell pepper (sliced thinly)
• 1 cup Snow peas
• 2 Green onions (sliced thinly)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 cups Cooked white rice (for serving)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, toss the shrimp with cornstarch until evenly coated. Set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and chicken or vegetable broth to create the sauce mixture. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and slightly crispy on the edges, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the grated ginger and minced garlic, stirring continuously for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the sliced red bell pepper and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 2-3 minutes until they are crisp-tender.

Step 6

Pour the prepared sauce mixture into the skillet and bring it to a simmer. Let it cook for 1-2 minutes to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss everything together to coat evenly in the sauce. Drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with sliced green onions.

Step 8

Serve the Shrimp a La Fong over steamed white rice and garnish with sesame seeds for a finishing touch. Enjoy!
