Description
Succulent shrimp glazed in a sweet and savory honey garlic sauce, served with rice or quinoa and fresh broccoli.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups cooked white rice, brown rice, or quinoa
- 1 cup broccoli florets, steamed or sautéed
- ¼ cup green onions, finely sliced
- Optional: sesame seeds or crushed red pepper flakes for garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, garlic, and grated ginger to prepare the sauce.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and curled.
- Pour the honey garlic mixture into the skillet and let it bubble and thicken, stirring gently to coat the shrimp (about 2 minutes).
- Steam or sauté the broccoli until bright green and tender.
- Build your bowl by spooning rice or quinoa into bowls, topping with honey garlic shrimp, broccoli, and sprinkling with green onions and optional toppings.
Notes
Don’t overcook the shrimp; they cook quickly and continue to cook in the sauce. Feel free to substitute ingredients based on dietary needs.
