Ingredients
1 pound (450g) shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Optional toppings: sliced green onions, sesame seeds
Preparation
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and sesame oil. This creates the flavorful sauce for the stir-fry.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Pour the sauce mixture over the cooked shrimp in the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the shrimp nicely.
Remove the skillet from heat. The honey garlic sauce should have glazed the shrimp, providing a sweet and savory coating.
If desired, garnish the dish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. This adds a pop of color and additional flavor to the stir-fry.
Serve the Honey Garlic Shrimp Stir-Fry over a bed of rice or noodles. The shrimp and sauce pair perfectly with the base, creating a delicious and satisfying meal.
Enjoy your Honey Garlic Shrimp Stir-Fry! The combination of the sweet honey, savory soy sauce, and aromatic garlic creates a delightful flavor profile that complements the tender shrimp beautifully.
