2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
3 Tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons red chili garlic sauce ({omit for less spice})
1/2 cup vegetable broth
3 Tablespoons olive oil ({separated})
1 Tablespoons ginger (freshly grated)
2 garlic (minced)
1 pound jumbo shrimp (shelled and deveined)
1 bell pepper (seeds removed, sliced {feel free to use a combination of colors like red and orange})

Method

1
In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the fresh lime juice, low sodium soy sauce, red chili garlic sauce and vegetable broth. Set aside.
2
In a large skillet heat the 2 Tablespoons olive oil over medium high heat. Add the ginger and garlic and sauté for 2 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant.
3
Add the shrimp and cook for 3 minutes, until the shrimp turn pink. Set the shrimp aside in a bowl leaving the leftover oil in the skillet.
4
In the same skillet add an additional 1 Tablespoon of olive oil over to the skillet and heat over medium high heat. Add the bell pepper and green beans and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the edamame and sugar snap peas. Continue to sauté until the vegetables are cooked, but still crisp, about 3 minutes.
5
Add the sauce and continue to cook on medium heat for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens up. Add the shrimp back in and stir to combine everything together. Add salt and pepper to taste.
6
Remove from the heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro, green onions and sesame seeds.
7
Serve the stir-fry over rice, noodles or on its own.

Notes

You can easily omit the shrimp and use chicken or leave it vegetarian with no meat. You can mix up the vegetables you use and add or omit whatever you like based on your tastes. Bok choy would be a nice addition, zucchini or even broccoli.
