Ingredients

• 1 lb Raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 3 tbsp Honey
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Fresh ginger (grated)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1.5 tbsp Sriracha sauce
• 1 tbsp Lime juice
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 2 stalks Green onions (sliced for garnish)
• 1 tsp Sesame seeds (optional for garnish)
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, Sriracha sauce, and lime juice to form the marinade.

Step 2

Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Add the shrimp to the bowl with the marinade, tossing to coat. Allow the shrimp to marinate for 10 minutes while you prep other ingredients.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.

Step 5

Using tongs, transfer the shrimp into the hot skillet, shaking off excess marinade into the bowl (do not discard the marinade). Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on one side until pink and slightly charred, then flip and cook the other side for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to medium and pour the reserved marinade into the skillet with the shrimp. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the shrimp.

Step 7

Remove from heat and transfer the shrimp to a serving plate.

Step 8

Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot with rice, noodles, or a fresh salad.
