Quick and Easy Honey Garlic Shrimp

Quick and easy honey garlic shrimp recipe. Great for a week night dinner! I made this recipe from Downshiftology and it was delicious.

I doubled what is below because I had 2 lbs of shrimp that I wanted to use.

* 1/3 cup honey

* 1/4 cup soy sauce

* 4 garlic cloves, minced

* 1 tsp freshly grated ginger

* 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper

* 1 tbsp olive oil

* t lb raw shrimp, peeled and deveined

* 1 tbsp finely chopped cilantro

* 1 green onion, thinly sliced

1) In a small bowl, stir together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes

2) Place the shrimp into a separate bowl and pour 1/3 of the sauce on top. Toss to coat the shrimp, then marinate for 15-20 minutes.

3) Heat the oil in a pan on medium high heat. Add the shrimp (discarding any leftover marinade) and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, until pink and just barely cooked through.

4) Pour the remaining 2/3 sauce into the pan and bring to a simmer, stirring the shrimp as it slightly reduces and warms through, for about a minute.

5) Turn off the heat, stir in the cilantro, and top with sliced green onions.
