Preparation

Step 1

Mix the salt and pepper together and sprinkle over the shrimp, tossing them to coat.
Over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a wok or large skillet. When the top of the oil ripples it is fully heated. Add the garlic and stir constantly for 1 minute.
Add the Sriracha sauce and stir together (1-2 seconds). Add the shrimp and lime juice. Stir constantly until the shrimp becomes opaque (no longer transparent) about 3-3 ½ minutes. Do not overcook. Remove from wok/skillet and set aside.
Heat the second tablespoon of oil. Add the shallot rings and broccoli. Stir for 3-5 minutes until the broccoli color has darkened and it is still crunchy though cooked.
Add the shrimp and any drippings back into the wok/skilled with the broccoli. Stir for 1 minute to combine and heat through. Serve immediately.
