Step-by-Step Instructions
- Rinse the large shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season the shrimp with a pinch of salt and pepper and set aside.
- Wash and trim the asparagus, cutting it into 2-inch pieces. Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips, and rinse the snap peas. Mince the garlic and ginger finely.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and water until smooth.
- Set a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Allow it to warm up.
- Add minced garlic and ginger to the hot oil, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Place the shrimp in a single layer in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, add asparagus and red bell pepper, stir-frying for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
- Toss in the snap peas and stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
- Return the cooked shrimp to the pan and pour the sauce over everything, stirring to coat.

Notes
Use fresh shrimp and seasonal vegetables for best flavor. Cook shrimp in a single layer for optimal searing.
