Garlic Honey Shrimp
Ingredients
  • 1 pound large raw shrimp (16-20 count), peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Asian fish sauce, or to taste
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup thinly sliced green onion, or to taste
Instructions
1
Ensure that the shrimp have completely thawed and excess moisture has been removed, then store them in the refrigerator while preparing the marinade.
2
Combine minced garlic, honey, grated ginger, soy sauce, and fish sauce in a bowl using an electric mixer on high speed until smooth.
3
Add the shrimp to the marinade mixture and mix well using a large serving spoon for 2 minutes, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes, stirring occasionally during this time.
4
Heat a large non-stick skillet over high heat until it reaches the smoke point, indicated by visible wisps of smoke. Utilize tongs to swiftly transfer the shrimp into the hot skillet in a single layer, leaving space between each piece. Reserve any excess marinade.
5
Sear the shrimp for 2 minutes on the first side, then flip them over. Pour in the reserved marinade and cook for 1 minute, allowing it to thicken into a rich glaze. Turn off the heat and flip the shrimp once more; let them sit for approximately 1 minute, allowing the residual heat in the pan to reduce the marinade. Finally, garnish with thinly sliced green onion.
