Ingredients:
– 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined (tails on or off)
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 1 tablespoon chopped parsley for garnish
– 3 garlic cloves, minced
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon sriracha or chili sauce (adjust to taste)
– 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions:
1. Begin by whisking together the honey, soy sauce, sriracha, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set it aside for later.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until it becomes fragrant and golden.
3. Introduce the shrimp to the skillet, cooking them for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Make sure not to overcook them; they should be tender and juicy.
4. Pour the prepared sauce over the cooked shrimp in the skillet. Gently toss to coat them evenly in the sauce. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 1-2 minutes, letting the sauce thicken slightly.
5. If you enjoy extra heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the shrimp. Finally, garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
