Ingredients

Sauces and liquids

  • 1/2 cup honey (I use Nature Nate's for a clean floral taste)

  • 1 tsp ginger (freshly minced)
  • 1/4 tsp pepper flakes
  • 1/2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 lb shrimp (peeled and deveined with tails left on)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp cilantro

Instructions 

  • In a bowl, whisk together honey, tamari, minced garlic, ginger, pepper flakes, and lime juice.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add shrimp to the skillet and cook until pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Pour the honey garlic sauce over the shrimp and cook for another 2-3 minutes until glazed.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro and sliced green onion before serving.

Notes

Serve immediately over rice or with steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
