Instructions

Make the stir fry
Prepare the shrimp by making sure it's clean and patting dry. Lightly season with salt.
Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add in half of the avocado oil (~1 tablespoon). Add in shrimp, one at a time, with tongs and let sit for 2 minutes over medium/high heat. Flip and repeat for another 2 minutes. About 1 minute in on this side, add in just a bit of the sauce. Lightly toss shrimp in the sauce before removing from pan. Set aside in serving plate while you cook the veggies.
Add in the remaining avocado oil (another tablespoon) and add in snow peas and zucchini or asparagus. Lightly season with salt. Optional: Add in just a touch of water (about 1-2 teaspoons) and cover for 1 minute to speed up cooking process. Saute until brown, about 3-4 minutes. Add in remaining sauce. Continue to cook until quite browned, about 2 more minutes. Add to plate with shrimp.
Serve with rice or noodles and top with sesame seeds.
