• Pat dry the shrimp with clean paper towels. Butterfly with a small paring knife. Make a slice on the top (the back) of a shrimp down the middle, cutting almost but not all the way through to expose the vein. The butterfly step is optional but will help the shrimp cook evenly and more beautiful looking in presentation.

Quickly place the shrimp one-by-one to the skillet and fry them in a single layer (try not to overlap them) over medium-high heat about 2-3 minutes first side. Do not flip or move around the shrimp. Then quickly flip them with a tong or chopsticks to fry the second side for about 1-2 minutes. Scoop them out along with pan juice and scrape off any brown bits into a bowl and set aside to keep warm.
• Use the same skillet/work, add the rest of oil. Fry garlic with a pinch of salt over medium heat, about 5 seconds. Toss and scoop often so as not to burn the garlic. Add broccoli and season with 2 pinches of salt. Stir-fry and toss for 30 seconds over medium-high heat.
