Ingredients

Scale

Shrimp and Sauce

  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Sides

  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger thoroughly to create the flavorful honey garlic sauce.
  2. Cook the shrimp: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp, cooking them until they turn pink and opaque, approximately 2-3 minutes per side.
  3. Add the sauce to shrimp: Pour the prepared honey garlic sauce over the cooked shrimp in the pan. Stir well and cook for an additional 2 minutes to let the shrimp absorb the flavors and the sauce thicken slightly.
  4. Steam the broccoli: While the shrimp is cooking, steam the broccoli florets in a separate pot until they are tender but still crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
  5. Assemble the bowls: Spoon cooked rice or quinoa into serving bowls, top with the honey garlic shrimp, add the steamed broccoli, and garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh finish.

Notes

  • You can substitute rice with quinoa for a higher protein option.
  • Adjust the amount of garlic and ginger according to taste preferences.
  • For a spicier kick, add red pepper flakes to the sauce.
  • Ensure shrimp is cooked thoroughly until pink to avoid undercooking.
  • Use low-sodium soy sauce to reduce sodium content if desired.
