Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound Shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • ¼ cup Honey
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup Soy sauce (low sodium) For a healthier option
  • 1 cup Broccoli, chopped
  • 1 cup Bell peppers, sliced Any color preferred
  • 1 cup Rice (brown or white) Depending on dietary choice
  • 2 Green onions, sliced for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds for topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, mix the honey, minced garlic, and soy sauce together. This will be the delicious marinade for the shrimp.
  2. Marinate the shrimp in the mixture for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Prepare the rice according to package instructions.
Cooking
  1. Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Stir-fry the broccoli and bell peppers until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add the marinated shrimp to the pan and cook until pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Serve the shrimp over cooked rice and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

Portion control is key when serving to achieve a balanced plate. For a lighter option, serve on a bed of steamed vegetables instead of rice. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Shrimp is best eaten fresh, so freeze any leftovers with caution.
