  • 1-2 Cutting boards
  • 3-4 bowls
  • Measuring spoons
  • Chef Knife
  • Saran Wrap
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 Tong
  • 1 Wok or Large Skillet
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Serving spoon
  • 1 Measuring Cup

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb 20-25 Shrimp Wild caught
  • 2 tablespoons Oyster Sauce
  • 3 tablespoons Low Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • Kosher Salt To taste
  • 1 cup Yellow Onion Half moon shaped
  • 1 cup Red Bell Pepper Cut into strips
  • 6 cloves Fresh Garlic Minced
  • 4 cups Fresh Broccoli Florets
  • 1/2 teaspoon Rice Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Canola Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Corn Starch
  • 1/2 cup Cold Water
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sesame Oil

Instructions
 

  • Begin with cleaning and deveining your shrimp. You can buy it already done for you. Then begin with making the marinate. Put low-sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, honey, and Kosher salt to marinate. Mix well with your whisk. Add a tablespoon of the marinade to the shrimp and a pinch of salt. Mix well together and put the shrimp back in the fridge.
  • While the shrimp marinate, chop your vegetables. Begin by chopping bell peppers, onions, then garlic. Then cut the broccoli into florets and rinse well.
  • Make a slurry with cold water, and then add cornstarch to the water mix and set outside.
  • Now, take the shrimp out of the fridge and put them with the rest of the ingredients so you can begin to cook. Take your wok or large skillet and start heating it. When the pan is heated, add the canola oil. Once the oil is hot add the shrimp with your tongs individually. Cook shrimp for 30 seconds on each side then remove them from the pan and place them in a bowl.
  • Put 1/2 cup of fresh water into the bowl of broccoli and seal it with saran wrap. Place it in the microwave for about 2-3 mins until the broccoli is a little tender and bright green. Remove the saran wrap and set aside.
  • Begin to add the vegetables now. Add the bell peppers and then the onion to the pan. Add a pinch of salt and saute for a few minutes until the onions and peppers are tender. Then add the garlic. Cook the garlic for a few seconds until you smell the garlic.
  • Then add the broccoli and mix all the vegetables. Add the remaining sauce in the measuring cup to the hot pan and mix everything. After 1-2 mins add the slurry which is the cornstartch mixture. Mix everything well.
  • When the sauce thickens, add the shrimp to the pan and mix it. After 1-2 minutes you are ready to serve.
