Ingredients
  

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

1/2 cup honey

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

2 tablespoons sesame oil

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

2 cups cooked jasmine rice

1 cup broccoli florets

1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1/4 cup chopped green onions (for garnish)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined.

    Marinate the Shrimp: Place the peeled and deveined shrimp into the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

      Cook the Vegetables: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the broccoli florets and sliced red bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are cooked but still crisp. Transfer the vegetables to a plate and set aside.

        Sauté the Shrimp: In the same skillet, add the sesame oil and let it heat up. Add the marinated shrimp along with all of the marinade. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and the sauce has thickened a bit. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

          Combine Ingredients: Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet with the cooked shrimp. Toss everything together gently until the vegetables are heated through and fully incorporated with the shrimp and sauce.

            Serve: In individual serving bowls, place a generous portion of jasmine rice. Top it with the honey garlic shrimp and vegetable mixture. Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for an extra crunch.

              Enjoy: Serve immediately while the dish is hot, and savor the delightful blend of sweet and savory flavors!
