20 Minute Honey Garlic Shrimp

This week, are you looking for a quick but wonderful dinner? We’ve got it all right here for you.

A robust marinade of honey, soy sauce, and garlic lend a lot of flavor to these saucy shrimp.

 Which is music to everyone’s taste buds. We add some minced fresh ginger for a little more flavor, but it’s completely optional.

Ingredients

1. 1/3 cup honey
2. 1/4 cup soy sauce (we usually use reduced sodium)
3. 2 garlic cloves, minced (or 1 Tablespoon jarred minced garlic)
4. 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger (optional )
5. 1 lb medium uncooked shrimp, peeled & deveined
6. 2 teaspoons olive oil
7. optional for garnish: chopped green onion

Instructions

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger (if using). Half will be used for the marinade in step 2 and the other half will fry the shrimp in step 3.
2. Place shrimp in a large sealable container or plastic bag with a zippered top. Pour half of the marinade/sauce mixture on top, give everything a good shake or stir, and let the shrimp marinate for 15 minutes or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
3. Refrigerate the remaining marinade after covering it. (As a timesaving suggestion, we prepare broccoli and microwave some fast brown rice while the shrimp marinates.)
4. In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. In a skillet, place the shrimp. (Remove the used marinade.) Cook for 45 seconds on one side, then flip to cook for another 45 seconds. Pour in the remaining marinade/sauce and simmer until the shrimp are fully cooked, about 1-2 minutes more.
5. Arrange the shrimp on a plate with the prepared marinade sauce and a green onion garnish. On brown rice with steaming vegetables on the side, the sauce tastes delicious.

Also, note

1. Do you want to thicken the sauce? Some readers add 1 teaspoon cornstarch to the second half of the sauce that will be cooked in step 3 to thicken it. This thickens the sauce and prevents it from being as runny. To do so, whisk together 1 teaspoon cornstarch and 1 teaspoon warm water using a fork. Stir the cornstarch into the sauce once it has dissolved before using it in step 3.
2. Garlic cloves (about 2 teaspoons minced): If using fresh garlic, minced 2 cloves (approximately 2 teaspoons minced). Use 1 Tablespoon of refrigerated jarred minced garlic.
3. Shrimp: You can remove or keep the tail. Fresh shrimp is preferred, however, frozen shrimp can still be used. Before marinating and cooking, allow the meat to thaw.
4. Thaw, marinade, then cook frozen cooked shrimp as indicated. All you’ll be doing is cooking up the shrimp in the sauce.
5. It’s debatable if we should consume the leftover marinade. While you can boil it to remove any contaminants, the flavor may vary. Do whatever you want. We just use half of the sauce for the marinade in this recipe so we have extra for cooking. (In step 3, we discard the used marinade.)

12. 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

16.  2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
17.  For serving: rice whole wheat couscous, crusty bread, pasta (optional)

2. Heat the olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle the remaining 14 teaspoons of salt and 14 teaspoons of black pepper over the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, or until softened. Reduce the heat as needed to soften the onion without browning it. Cook for about 30 seconds, or until the garlic is aromatic.

Storage Tips

1. To be kept. Refrigerate leftovers for up to three days in an airtight storage container.
2.  In order to reheat. In a large skillet on the stove, slowly reheat Mediterranean shrimp over medium-low heat.
   Also, I think leftovers would be good as a salad over lettuce or spaghetti when served cold.
3. You should not freeze this meal because the texture of the shrimp may turn mushy once thawed.
