Method
Preparation
Prepare the Shrimp
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
Chop the Vegetables
Slice the bell pepper, carrot, and chop the green onions, and mince the garlic. Set all vegetables aside.
Cooking
Heat the Wok
Place a wok over high heat and allow it to get very hot, about 2 minutes.
Add Oil and Garlic
Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to the hot wok. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Combine the Shrimp and Sauce
Return the cooked shrimp to the wok. Add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and red pepper flakes. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the shrimp and vegetables to absorb the sauce.
