Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and stir-fry 2–3 minutes per side until pink and just cooked. Remove shrimp and set aside.

Add remaining oil to the pan, toss in broccoli, and stir-fry 3–4 minutes until bright green and slightly crisp.

Add garlic (and ginger if using) and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.

Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Toss to coat broccoli evenly.

Return shrimp to the pan. If you want a thicker sauce, add cornstarch slurry and stir until sauce thickens and coats everything.
