#Recipes #Food #Drink >> 20 MINUTE HONEY GARLIC SHRIMP + WEEKLY MENU
This particular recipe was not unlike the lake perch that Shea demolished for lunch today. I was actually regretting not doubling the recipe because if this toddler decides she’s hungry and likes something…watch out!
With the sweet-salty marinade and its ginger + garlic punch, it’s perfect to serve over a simple whole grain like brown rice, or as we did, a garlic quinoa and brown rice combination. And a vegetable, of course. A quick and easy meal, ready in minutes…and packed with flavor!
INGREDIENTS
⅓ cup honey
¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh ginger, minced
1 lb raw shrimp, peeled & deveined
2 tsp olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
Whisk together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger in a medium bowl. Add shrimp, cover, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 8-12 hours.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add shrimp (not marinade) to the skillet. Cook shrimp on one side until no longer pink, about 1 minute, then flip shrimp over and cook an additional 1 minute; remove shrimp to a plate and cover to keep hot.
Pour the the marinade into the hot skillet and bring to a simmer; cook 2-3 minute or until slightly thickened.
Returned shrimp to the skillet and cook 1 additional minute. Serve hot.
