A vibrant and flavorful stir-fry featuring shrimp, ginger, and sesame, perfect for a quick and healthy meal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp with ground ginger, minced garlic, and black pepper.
Let the shrimp marinate for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Heat a wok over medium-high heat and toast the sesame seeds until golden. Remove and set aside.
Stir constantly to prevent the sesame seeds from burning.
Add a bit of oil to the wok and sauté the red bell pepper and scallions until slightly softened.
Cook the vegetables just enough to retain their crunch.
Add the marinated shrimp and sugar snap peas to the wok. Stir-fry until the shrimp turn opaque.
Avoid overcooking the shrimp to keep them tender.
Mix the cornstarch with chicken broth in a small bowl and pour into the wok. Stir until the sauce thickens.
Ensure the cornstarch is fully dissolved to avoid lumps.
Stir in the teriyaki sauce and toasted sesame seeds. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.
Taste the dish before adding salt, as the teriyaki sauce may already be salty.
Serve the stir-fry over steamed rice or noodles, garnished with additional scallions if desired.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its freshest.
