2. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the heated skillet. Coat damp shrimp lightly with cornstarch and place in preheated skillet. Cook shrimp until they are almost done, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove shrimp from skillet and set aside on a paper towel lined plate or platter.

3. Leaving skillet heated to medium-high, add sliced peppers and onion. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables start to get soft.
