Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the shrimp
  • 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
For serving
  • 2 cups cooked rice Jasmine or basmati works well
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (e.g., broccoli, bell peppers, snap peas)
  • Sesame seeds for garnish
  • Green onions for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the bowl, allowing them to soak in the marinade for about 10 minutes.
Cooking the Vegetables
  1. While the shrimp is marinating, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Toss in mixed vegetables and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until bright and tender-crisp. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Cooking the Shrimp
  1. In the same skillet, add the marinated shrimp. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are pink and opaque, spooning the remaining sauce over them as they cook.
Assembly
  1. Divide the cooked rice among serving bowls. Top with sautéed vegetables and glazed shrimp.
Garnishing
  1. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the top for extra flair.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove with a splash of water for moisture. For variations, chicken or tofu can substitute shrimp.
