For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of soy sauce or rice vinegar to the honey-cornstarch glaze. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes according to your spice preference. If you don't have a wok, a large skillet works just as well. Ensure it's large enough to accommodate all the ingredients without overcrowding. Feel free to substitute other vegetables like broccoli florets, snow peas, or carrots based on your preference and availability. For a richer flavor, marinate the shrimp in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for 30 minutes before cooking. Freshly grated ginger can be used instead of ground ginger for a more vibrant taste.
