Ingredients

For the shrimp and sauce

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
¼ cup honey
¼ cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
1 tbsp olive oil

For the bowls

2 cups cooked white rice, brown rice, or quinoa
1 cup broccoli florets, steamed or sautéed
¼ cup green onions, finely sliced

Optional garnish

sesame seeds for garnish
crushed red pepper flakes for garnish

Method

Preparation

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, garlic, and grated ginger.

Cooking the Shrimp

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add shrimp in a single layer and cook about 2–3 minutes per side until they turn pink.
Don’t overcook; they should curl into a ‘C’ shape.

Glazing Shrimp

Pour the honey garlic mixture into the skillet and let it bubble and thicken slightly.
Stir gently to coat every shrimp in the sauce.

Cooking Veggies

Steam the broccoli until bright green and fork-tender or sauté for a bit of caramelization.

Building the Bowls

Scoop your rice or quinoa into bowls.
Top with honey garlic shrimp, spoon over the sauce, and add the veggies.
Finish with green onions, and optional sesame seeds or red pepper flakes.
