Ingredients
  

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 cups broccoli florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ginger, grated

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Cooked rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Broccoli: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch them for about 2-3 minutes until they turn bright green. Drain and immediately transfer to ice water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

    Sauté the Shrimp: In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

      Add Shrimp: Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

        Combine the Flavors: Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), honey, and chili flakes. Mix well to coat the shrimp evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

          Incorporate Broccoli: Add the blanched broccoli to the skillet and gently toss everything together, cooking for another 1-2 minutes to heat through.

            Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds. Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles.
