Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Small bowl
  • large skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Large shrimp preferably with tails on
  • ⅓ cup Coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon Honey I use natural sugar-free honey
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • ½ tablespoon Fresh ginger grated
  • ¼ teaspoon Sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
  • ¼ cup Green onions optional, for garnish; sliced

Instructions
 

  • Place the shrimp in a large bowl. Pat dry with paper towels.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos or soy sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and red pepper flakes.
  • Pour half of the marinade over the shrimp, and mix to coat. (Reserve the other half of the marinade for later.) Let the shrimp marinate for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer, discarding any extra marinade from the shrimp bowl. Cook for about 1 minute.
  • Working quickly, flip the shrimp over and immediately pour the reserved marinade from step 3 over the shrimp. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce thickens, and the shrimp is cooked through. Stir to coat the shrimp in sauce more.
  • Garnish with sliced green onions if you like.
