- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 pounds shrimp peeled, deveined, and patted dry
- 4 cups broccoli florets
Sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce (if using regular, cut in half and then taste sauce before adding to stir fry)
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons ginger (or 1 to 2 inches freshly grated) read more about using ginger here.
- 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar packed
- 2 teaspoons chili paste read more about chili paste here.
- 3 tablespoons corn starch
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the water, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, garlic, ginger, chili paste, brown sugar, and corn starch.
Heat the olive oil in a large 12 inch skillet, over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side being careful not to overcook. If the shrimp aren't fully pink at this point, it is okay, they will finish cooking in the following steps.
Add the broccoli and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, covered, stirring often.
Pour in the sauce and allow it to thicken for about two minutes while stiring. The sauce will not only thicken, it will turn a darker brown color.
Serve over rice (or cauliflower rice for low carb) and enjoy!
