Ingredients
1/2 c. honey
3 cloves garlic, pressed or finely minced
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp olive oil
3 – 3 1/2 c. fresh or frozen shrimp, completely thawed and rinsed (you can use shrimp with shells and tails on, or shrimp with the shells and tails removed)
toasted sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
How to make Easy One Pan Honey Garlic Shrimp
Step 1: Combine the honey, garlic, rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, water, and cornstarch in a small bowl and set aside.
Step 2: Add the olive oil to a hot large skillet. Add the shrimp, toss them in the olive oil, and cook over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes per side until pink. Note that shrimp without tails and shells cooks faster than shrimp with tails and shells.
Step 3: To the skillet, pour in the honey garlic sauce mixture and toss to coat the shrimp. Continue to cook until the sauce has thickened and is sticky.
Step 4: Remove from the heat when done and serve the shrimp over rice with steamed veggies on the side. If desired, garnish with toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy!
