Garlic Honey Shrimp

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic Honey Shrimp.

1. Step 1

   Start by ensuring your shrimp are completely thawed and well-drained.

2. Step 2

   While you prepare the marinade, keep them chilled in the refrigerator to maintain their freshness.

3. Step 3

   In a mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, honey, grated ginger, soy sauce, and fish sauce.

4. Step 4

   Whisk these ingredients together until they form a harmonious blend that will infuse your shrimp with flavor.

5. Step 5

   Next, add the shrimp to the marinade and gently toss them with a spatula for about two minutes, making sure every piece is thoroughly coated.

6. Step 6

   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the shrimp marinate in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes, giving them a little toss every now and then to ensure even flavor distribution.

7. Step 7

   When you’re ready to cook, brush a large nonstick skillet with vegetable oil and heat it over high heat until you see small wisps of smoke rising.

8. Step 8

   Using tongs, carefully place the marinated shrimp in the skillet in a single layer, setting aside any leftover marinade for later.
