Ingredients
  

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 tablespoons honey

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Set aside half of the marinade for later.

    Marinate the Shrimp: Add the shrimp to the bowl with the marinade, ensuring they're well coated. Let them marinate for about 15-20 minutes at room temperature.

      Cook the Shrimp: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn pink and opaque.

        Glaze the Shrimp: Flip the shrimp over and pour the reserved marinade into the skillet. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, tossing the shrimp gently to coat them in the glaze. Allow the honey garlic sauce to thicken slightly.

          Season: Taste the shrimp and add salt and black pepper as needed.

            Serve: Remove from heat and transfer the shrimp to a serving dish. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for garnish.

              Enjoy: Serve immediately, paired with steamed rice or sautéed vegetables for a complete meal!
