Classic Shrimp Stir Fry

I am a sucker for a great stir fry!  The more veggies, the better – crispy, crunchy deliciousness 😋

On this particular day I wanted a sauce like teriyaki but not teriyaki, you know what I mean 🤷‍♀️🤗

This is how I did it:

In a deep pan, preheat the oil on high.  When it’s hot (it will ripple) add the veggies to the pan and season lightly with salt and pepper.  Sauté veggies for 4-5 minutes then set aside.

Give the stir fry sauce another quick mix then add it to the pan, let it come to a boil then simmer it on medium-low until the sauce has thickened.
