Honey Garlic Shrimp

"Every now and then a recipe comes along that surprises me. When I created this honey garlic shrimp, I was floored that making the sweet savory glaze and juicy sauteed shrimp actually takes only 10 minutes! This recipe hits all those comforting, satisfying dinner notes with a lightning fast prep speed: making it one of my favorite easy dinner ideas after over a decade of creating recipes! It's hard to find ideas that are healthy, simple, and delicious: and this one is all of those."

"Mix the shrimp with minced garlic, onion powder, and salt. This allows maximum coverage of the seasoning on the shrimp first. Mix together a quick sauce. Honey, soy sauce, and rice vinegar is all you need! Sauté 1 to 2 minutes per side. It's perfectly seared, just like our popular sautéed shrimp. Turn off the heat and add the sauce. Removing the heat is important so the sauce doesn't evaporate when it hits the hot pan. Stir until everything is fully coated in glossy sauce."

Honey garlic shrimp requires no marinating and cooks in about 10 minutes. Shrimp are seasoned with minced garlic, onion powder, and salt to ensure even coverage. A quick sauce of honey, soy sauce, and rice vinegar is combined and added off the heat to preserve gloss and prevent evaporation. Shrimp are sautéed 1 to 2 minutes per side for a perfect sear, then tossed in the sauce until fully coated. Use medium or large shrimp, peeled or with tails on, fresh or thawed frozen shrimp, and prefer wild-caught when available.
