Stir Fried Shrimp with Broccoli

Here is another recipe that I tried from one of sites that was recommended by my N@W friends. I wanted to try different dishes but I just want a simple dish that I can do. I also wanted a dish that has veggies. So, when I saw this dish I made sure that I will try it right away.

Of course in any dish that I recreate, I try to make it my own. I added other ingredients and I substituted some ingredients as well.
