Ingredients

• 1 lb large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 4 cloves garlic (minced)
• 3 tablespoon olive oil
• ⅓ cup Cairo Apiaries Honey
• 3 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 onion
• 1 bell pepper
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp cornstarch
• 2 teaspoon scotch bonnet pepper (finely chopped)
• 2 carrots (julienned)
• ¼ cup fresh cilantro (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoon lime juice

Instructions

• Marinate the Shrimp:

  In a medium bowl, whisk together Cairo Apiaries Raw Honey, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic and chopped Scotch bonnet pepper.

  Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat. Let the shrimp marinate for at least 10 minutes.
• Prepare the Vegetables:

  While the shrimp is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Thinly slice the bell pepper and onion, and julienne the carrots.
• Cook the Vegetables:

  Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

  Add the sliced onion and bell pepper, stirring frequently for about 2 minutes until they begin to soften.

  Add the broccoli florets and julienned carrots, and continue to stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
• Cook the Shrimp:

  Push the vegetables to the sides of the skillet, creating a well in the center.

  Add the marinated shrimp to the center of the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side, until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
• Combine and Thicken (Optional):

  Once the shrimp are cooked, stir the vegetables and shrimp together.

  Add the remaining marinade to the skillet. If you prefer a thicker sauce, stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
• Finish and Serve:

  Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the fresh cilantro and lime juice.

  Serve the honey-garlic shrimp stir-fry over cooked jasmine rice or noodles for a complete meal.
