Bring to a boil and allow to boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat.

Place shrimp into a heat-proof bowl, then pour half of the sauce on top. Give it a stir and set aside for 10 minutes, uncovered at room temperature.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the snap peas, then stir and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until crisp-tender.

Add the shrimp, then the remaining half of the teriyaki sauce. Stir and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes until shrimp is pink and cooked through.

Serve with rice and a sprinkle of sesame seeds, and enjoy!
