1
Prepare the Shrimp
Start by rinsing the shrimp under cold water and patting them dry with paper towels. Ensure they are fully peeled and deveined.
2
Mise en Place
Gather all ingredients and have them ready to use. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4
Sauté Garlic and Ginger
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Sauté for approximately 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
5
Cook the Shrimp
Add the shrimp to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque, stirring occasionally.
6
Add Teriyaki Sauce
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked shrimp. Stir well to coat all the shrimp evenly. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

7
Plate the Dish
Once the shrimp are well-coated and the sauce has thickened, remove from heat. Serve the shrimp teriyaki over rice or noodles.
8
Garnish
Sprinkle sliced green onions and sesame seeds over the top for added flavor and presentation.
