Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, carrots)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ginger, grated
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they become pink and opaque. Remove shrimp and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the mixed vegetables and stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
Return the shrimp to the skillet and pour the teriyaki sauce over the mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip: For a gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce.

For the best flavor, marinate the shrimp for at least 15 minutes before cooking. If you prefer a spicier kick, add some red pepper flakes or a splash of sriracha to the sauce.

Feel free to customize the vegetables based on what you have on hand. Broccoli, bell peppers, and snap peas all work wonderfully. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave until warmed through.
