Ingredients

  • 1 lb large shrimp peeled and deveined, tails on or off
  • 4 cups broccoli florets about 1 large head
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes optional, for heat
  • 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water for slurry
  • 1/4 cup green onions sliced, for garnish
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds for garnish, optional

Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet to maintain texture. Make-Ahead: You can prep the sauce and chop the broccoli up to a day in advance. Variations: Add sliced bell peppers or snap peas with the broccoli. For a lighter option, use chicken breast instead of shrimp. Serving Suggestions: Serve over steamed jasmine rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
