Coat a skillet with cooking spray and heat on medium. Add asparagus, peppers, cauliflower, lemon zest, and 1/4 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally until vegetables just begin to soften, 5-7 minutes. Remove to bowl and cover. Add garlic and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt to skillet and sweat 1 minute. Add shrimp and cook 1-2 minutes more. Whisk cornstarch into chicken broth until smooth, then pour over shrimp. Cook and stir until thick and shrimp is pink and just cooked through, 2-3 minutes more.
