• 1 cup Snow peas
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Ginger (grated)
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
• 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 stalks Green onions (sliced)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Season the shrimp with salt and black pepper and add them to the hot pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and are just cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add broccoli, red bell pepper, julienned carrot, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are crisp-tender.

Step 6

Return the shrimp to the skillet with the vegetables.

Step 7

Pour the sauce mixture over the shrimp and vegetables. Stir well to evenly coat everything in the sauce and cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 8

Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 9

Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
