Ingredients
  • 1 lb. raw shrimp
  • 2 tbsp. sesame oil + more if needed
  • 6-7 cloves garlic, minced
  • ⅓ cup honey
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp. cornstarch
  • 2 cups snap peas
  • 3-4 carrots, cut into matchstick sized pieces
  • Rice for serving
  • Sesame seeds for serving
Instructions
  1. Peel and devein the shrimp and pat dry with a paper towel and set aside.
  2. Heat the sesame oil in a skillet and add the shrimp. Ensure every shrimp can lay flat on the bottom of the pan, so work in batches if needed. Cook for a few minutes before flipping. The shrimp will be done when it is opaque all the way through.
  3. Add the garlic and stir to combine, cooking for a few minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Add the sauce to the skillet, along with the peas and carrots.
  5. Stir for a few minutes to allow the sauce to thicken and coat all the veggies. Cook until the veggies are crisp tender, then serve over rice and top with sesame seeds
