Honey Garlic Shrimp
This Honey Garlic Shrimp is an easy stir fry recipe with broccoli and a thick and flavorful sauce that you can serve over rice. It’s a quick and healthy dinner recipe that your family will love!
The sauce is savory from the chicken broth, sweet from the honey and brown sugar, and tangy from apple cider vinegar. Soy sauce adds umami, and it’s further enhanced with garlic, a hint of toasted sesame seed oil (optional), and ground ginger. (I can taste it already!)
I love to serve this with rice and top it off with green onions and maybe even some roughly chopped peanuts!
It’s not a spicy recipe, but feel free to add some hot sauce to turn up the heat a little bit if you like spice!
