11. Honey garlic shrimp and broccoli
You will need:
1 cup large shrimp (deveined and tails removed)
1 cup broccoli (chopped)
¼ cup organic honey
¼ cup light soy sauce
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp garlic (minced)
1 tsp ginger (freshly grated)
¼ tsp red pepper flakes
½ tsp corn starch or arrowroot flour
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper powder, to taste
How to:
Mix honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, red pepper in a small mixing bowl to prepare the sauce.
Pour one-third of this sauce in a large mixing bowl and toss shrimps in it to marinate for 30 minutes. Add the corn starch to the remaining sauce, and set the mixing bowl aside.
After 30 minutes, remove the shrimps and discard the marinade sauce.
Heat oil in a skillet over high heat and saute broccoli, salt, and pepper for five to six minutes until the broccoli turns soft. Turn off the heat and transfer the broccoli into a bowl.
Heat butter into the same skillet, add shrimp and cook each side for about two minutes over medium heat.
Pour the remaining sauce on the shrimp and bring the mixture to simmer. Add the cooked broccoli mixture and toss everything well.
Turn off the flame, transfer the shrimps and broccoli fry into a bowl, and serve with steamed brown rice for a sumptuous lunch.
