Preparation Steps
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using). Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
- While the shrimp is marinating, steam or sauté the broccoli florets, sliced carrots, and sliced bell pepper until tender-crisp.

- To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked rice among four bowls. Top with the cooked shrimp and steamed vegetables.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Notes
For a spicier kick, add more red pepper flakes to the marinade. You can also add other vegetables like snap peas or edamame.
