   • In a saucepan, bring the chicken broth, soy sauce, and sherry wine to a gentle boil. Once boiled, remove from heat and set aside, keeping it warm.

2. Prepare Cornstarch Slurry:

   • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until it forms a smooth slurry. Set aside for later use.

3. Stir Fry Aromatics:

   • Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of cooking oil. Stir fry the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced green onions for about a minute until fragrant.

4. Cook Shrimp:

   • Add the jumbo shrimp to the wok and stir fry for approximately 2 minutes or until they are barely opaque. Remove the shrimp from the wok and set them aside.

5. Stir Fry Pea Pods:

   • In the same wok, add another tablespoon of cooking oil if needed. Stir fry the pea pods for about 2-3 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.

6. Combine Ingredients:

   • Pour the previously prepared broth mixture into the wok with the pea pods. Bring it to a boil.

7. Add Shrimp:

   • Once the broth mixture is boiling, add the cooked shrimp back into the wok. Stir well to combine and heat the shrimp through.

8. Thicken Sauce:
