A healthier version of the Chinese restaurant-style dish that is typically battered and deep-fried, this sweet and sour shrimp with broccoli is one of the easiest (and tastiest) suppers you can make. Start a pot of rice before you begin prepping and 30 minutes later, your dinner is done.

  • soy sauce: 3 Tbsp
  • sugar: 4 tsp
  • asian chili sauce: 1 Tbsp (such as Sambal Oelek (available in Asian aisle of most supermarkets))
  • cornstarch: 2 Tbsp
