Szechwan Shrimp

It's been a while! I haven't been cooking many new things, but here's a new fave, healthy and SO easy:

1/2 c water
1/4 c ketchup
2 tablespoon soy sauce
4 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup sliced green onions
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb uncooked shrimp, tails removed

In a bowl, stir together water, ketchup, soy sauce, cornstarch, honey, crushed red pepper, and ground ginger. Set aside.

Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Stir in green onions and garlic; cook 30 seconds. Stir in shrimp, and toss to coat with oil. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, then add in sauce. Cook and stir until sauce is bubbly and thickened and shrimp are cooked through.
