Instructions 

  • In a medium size bowl, whisk to combine the honey, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, and cornstarch. Reserve a ½ cup of the marinade and set aside.
  • Add the shrimp to the bowl, toss to coat, and set aside. Stir occasionally to evenly coat them in the sauce.
  • While the shrimp are marinating, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sesame oil to a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Cook the broccoli and onions for about 10-minutes, just until the broccoli is starting to become tender. Try not to overcook the broccoli - remember it is going to continue cooking with the shrimp!
  • Scoop the shrimp out of the marinade and place them in the skillet with the broccoli. Discard the leftover marinade. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Once the shrimp start to curl and turn pink (after about 2 minutes), add in the ½ cup of the reserved marinade, stirring until the shrimp and broccoli are well coated. Cook for 2 to3 minutes more, just until the sauce has thickened and shrimp are cooked through. Serve immediately over rice, noodles, or with a side salad.

Notes

  • Store: Transfer any leftover Honey Garlic Shrimp to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheating: For best results, reheat gently in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of water to loosen the sauce if needed. Avoid microwaving, as shrimp can become rubbery quickly!
