  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce Provides heat and a kick of spice.
  • 1 tablespoon honey Adds sweetness to balance the spiciness.

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound raw shrimp Offers a great source of protein.
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil Ideal for high-heat cooking.
  • 2 cups broccoli florets Adds crunch and nutrients.
  • 1 cup bell peppers Introduces sweetness and color.
  • 1 cup sugar snap peas Provides crisp texture.
  • 1 medium red onion Adds mild sweetness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare the sauce by whisking together the soy sauce, water, sriracha, honey, and cornstarch in a small bowl. Set aside.
Cooking
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the shrimp and cook until no longer raw, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining oil to the skillet, then add the broccoli, peppers, red onions, and snap peas. Cook until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add garlic and ginger, cooking and stirring for 30 seconds.
Serving
  1. Reduce the heat to medium, add the shrimp back to the skillet, stir the sauce, and then add it to the skillet.
  2. Continue to cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens and coats the shrimp and vegetables, about 2 more minutes.
  3. Off heat, drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

Notes

For extra crunch, consider adding cashews or peanuts. Adjust sriracha to your spice preference.
