Honey Garlic Shrimp
This honey garlic shrimp is full of flavor from the honey and spices. It’s the perfect side dish or can even be served as the main. It comes together quickly and uses minimal ingredients as well. Most of all, it’s super delicious!
Ingredients
- 12 oz. shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Rinse your shrimp with cold water and pat fully dry with a paper towel.
- Transfer shrimp to a bowl and season with the garlic powder, salt, pepper, and paprika. Add in soy sauce and honey. Stir to fully coat shrimp.
- Add approximately a tablespoon or two of olive oil to a pan on the stove and turn heat to medium. Make sure the oil is fully distributed throughout the pan.
- Once the pan has heated, add shrimp in a single layer, do not overlap any. Discard any leftover marinade, you don’t want the pan to have any excess liquid, other than the olive oil.
- Cook shrimp approximately 2-3 minutes, then flip each shrimp individually using tongs. Continue cooking until shrimp is cooked through, approximately another 2-3 minutes. Be sure to only flip once and leave shrimp undisturbed while it’s cooking. That helps the shrimp get that nice, brown char.
- Once done cooking, remove from pan and serve.
- Enjoy!
