Instructions

  1. In a small #[Mixing Bowl], whisk together the @[Low-Sodium Soy Sauce], @[Oyster Sauce], @[Sesame Oil], @[Cornstarch], @[Low-Sodium Chicken Broth], and @[Honey] (if using) until the @[Cornstarch] is fully dissolved and no lumps remain. Set aside.
  2. Pat the @[Large Shrimp Peeled and Deveined] dry with paper towels and season lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat ~[1 tablespoon] of @[Vegetable Oil] in a #[Wok] or #[Skillet] over ^[high heat] until shimmering. Add the @[Large Shrimp Peeled and Deveined] in a single layer and cook undisturbed for ~[1–1.5 minutes] per side until pink and just cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining ~[1 tablespoon] of @[Vegetable Oil] to the same #[Wok] over ^[high heat]. Add the @[Broccoli Florets] and stir fry for ~[3–4 minutes], tossing frequently, until bright green and just tender with a slight bite. Add the @[Minced Garlic] and grated @[Ginger] and stir fry for another ~[30–60 seconds] until fragrant.
  4. Return the cooked @[Large Shrimp Peeled and Deveined] to the #[Wok]. Give the sauce a quick re-whisk and pour it over everything. Toss and stir constantly for ~[1–2 minutes] until the sauce thickens and coats the @[Large Shrimp Peeled and Deveined] and @[Broccoli Florets] evenly. Remove from heat immediately to avoid overcooking the @[Large Shrimp Peeled and Deveined].
  5. Transfer to a serving platter or divide into bowls. Garnish with toasted @[Sesame Seeds] and sliced @[Green Onions]. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
