In a wok over medium-high heat, heat vegetable and sesame oil together. When hot but not smoking, add broccoli. Cook 3-4 minutes.

Add shrimp, garlic, red pepper flakes, scallions and ginger. Cook, tossing occasionally until shrimp is cooked through (4-5 minutes).

For the sauce, in a separate pot add broth, sesame oil, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce and garlic. Bring to a boil and reduce heat. In a separate bowl, mix water and cornstarch until smooth. Add mixture to the sauce and mix until smooth. Reduce heat to low and continue to simmer until sauce has thickened to desired consistency 5-6 minutes.

Pour sauce over the shrimp stir fry and toss until combined. Serve over rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
