Ingredients
  

For the shrimp:

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 tablespoons honey

3 tablespoons soy sauce (use low sodium if preferred)

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)

For the veggies:

2 cups broccoli florets

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 carrot, julienned

1 zucchini, sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

For serving:

2 cups cooked brown rice or quinoa

2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Lemon wedges (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Shrimp: In a bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, minced ginger, and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and mix well to ensure the shrimp is evenly coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator for more flavor).

    Prepare the Veggies: While the shrimp marinates, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, carrot, and zucchini. Season with salt and pepper. Sauté the veggies for about 5-7 minutes or until they're tender but still slightly crisp. Remove from heat and set them aside.

      Cook the Shrimp: In the same skillet, add the marinated shrimp along with the marinade. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turns pink and is cooked through, stirring frequently. If you’re using sesame oil, drizzle it over the shrimp in the last minute of cooking for added flavor.

        Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, create a base of brown rice or quinoa. Top each bowl with sautéed veggies and a generous portion of honey garlic shrimp.

          Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle sliced green onions and sesame seeds over the bowls for garnish. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra pop of freshness.
