Ingredients
  

  • 450 g large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 60 ml honey
  • 60 ml soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 15 ml olive oil
  • 300 g cooked white rice, brown rice, or quinoa
  • 150 g broccoli florets, steamed or sautéed
  • ¼ cup green onions, finely sliced
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds or crushed red pepper flakes for garnish

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Whisk
  • Bowl

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, garlic, and grated ginger.
  2. Cook the Shrimp: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp in a single layer. Cook about 2–3 minutes per side, just until they turn pink and curl into a ‘C’ shape.
  3. Glaze with the Sauce: Pour the honey garlic mixture into the skillet. Let it bubble and thicken slightly, coating the shrimp in a glossy glaze.
  4. Steam or Sauté Veggies: Quickly steam broccoli until bright green and fork-tender or sauté them for a little caramelization.
  5. Build Your Bowl: Scoop your rice or quinoa into bowls. Pile on the honey garlic shrimp, spoon over the sauce, and nestle in your veggies.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding a squeeze of lime or a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top before serving.
