Ingredients:

1 cup fresh broccoli florets

1 cup fresh asparagus, cut into 2-inch lengths

2 to 3 baby red potatoes, skin-on, scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch wedges

1/2 red bell pepper (sweet capsicum), seeded and cut into 1/2-inch strips

1/2 medium sweet onion, cut into 1/2-inch wedges

1 medium carrot, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices on the bias

1 Tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Sauce:

1 navel orange

1 Tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 Tablespoon sesame seeds

1 pound jumbo shrimp (11-15 shrimp per pound)

Preparation:

Place broccoli, asparagus, potatoes, red bell peppers, sweet onions, and carrots in the base of the ActiFry®. Pour olive oil over the top. Close, set timer to 12 minutes, and start machine. 

Meanwhile, make the sauce. Zest the orange into a mixing bowl, then add the juice of that orange (1/4 to 1/3 cup of juice). Whisk in honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and pepper to taste. Set aside. 

When the vegetables have cooked for 12 minutes, add the shrimp. Top with the honey orange sauce and sesame seeds. Close lid, set timer for 10 minutes, and start the machine. 

Stove-Top Directions

Toast the sesame seeds in a dry saucepan just until golden. Set aside. 

Heat a large, heavy, non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat. Add olive oil, potatoes, and carrots. Cook, stirring often, until potatoes become opaque but still not cooked through. Add the broccoli, asparagus, red bell pepper, onions, and honey orange sauce. Continue cooking, stirring often, until potatoes and carrots are cooked through and vegetables are al dente. 

Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds and serve.
