At the end of a long day, there’s nothing quite like knowing that you can have a home-cooked dinner on the table in minutes and with very little effort. So you can take a deep breath and spend the evening relaxed.
Enter this Honey Glazed Shrimp Recipe that hits the spot! The taste is comforting, craving, and better than takeout!
Unlike some recipes I’ve found on Pinterest that follow this flavor profile but are way too sweet, this one strikes a nice balance with the spiciness. What’s great is that it can also be customized to suit the tastes of whoever is eating it.
I couldn’t believe how quickly it came about and how it can be combined with so many things. I served it with cauliflower rice and some sautéed snow peas. It was very satisfying and I will do it again next time I’m in a hurry but want to resist the urge to eat fast food!
Don’t forget the sesame seeds and green onions. Not only do they make it beautiful, but they also add great texture. Buy your shrimp ready to go – peeled, deveined and tailed – it saves so much time! Also, I think using freshly grated ginger just adds more spice and flavor than ginger powder.
This stores well and is a great reheat for lunch the next day if you have leftovers like we did. I was worried the shrimp would be way overcooked, but I reheated the leftovers in a pan over low heat and it was fine.
