Prepare the shrimp and broccoli:
If using fresh broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets. If using frozen, thaw first. Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

Cook the broccoli:
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli and stir-fry for 3–5 minutes, until tender but still bright green. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Cook the shrimp:
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp. Sauté for 2–3 minutes per side, until pink and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside with the broccoli.

Prepare the sauce:
Add minced garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste. For a touch of sweetness, add honey or brown sugar if desired. Simmer for 1–2 minutes to blend flavors.

Combine shrimp and broccoli:
Return the shrimp and broccoli to the pan with the sauce. Stir to coat evenly and cook for another 2–3 minutes to heat through and absorb the sauce.
