Ingredients

  • cup soy sauce low sodium
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger minced
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce
  • 1 pound jumbo shrimp tail on (about 10 to 12 shrimp)
  • 2 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Form the sauce: In a medium size bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger and sriracha sauce.
  • Toss the shrimp with the sauce: Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss well making sure the shrimp is coated in the sauce. 
  • Cook: Heat a skillet over medium high heat and add the shrimp to the skillet, reserve leftover sauce. Cook on both sides about 2 to 3 minutes per side until shrimp starts to turn pink and is cooked. Garnish shrimp with fresh parsley. Remove shrimp from skillet and set aside.
  • Finish the dish: Pour remaining sauce in the skillet and cook for a couple minutes until sauce reduces and thickens. Use the sauce to dip the shrimp in.

  2. This recipe would also be great on chicken or veggies like broccoli, carrots, etc.
  3. You can adjust the amount of sriracha to suit how spicy you'd like the dish to be. If you don't like spice, you can omit it entirely.
