Ingredients
- ⅓ cup honey
- ¼ cup tamari soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound raw shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro or parsley
- 1 green onion thinly sliced
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes.
- Place the shrimp into a separate bowl and pour 1/3 of the sauce on top. Toss to coat the shrimp, then marinate for 15-20 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a pan on medium-high heat. Add the shrimp (discarding any leftover marinade) and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, until pink and just barely cooked through.
- Pour the remaining 2/3 sauce into the pan and bring to a simmer, stirring with the shrimp as it slightly reduces and warms through, for about a minute.
- Turn off the heat, stir in the cilantro or parsley, and top with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes
- This is the gluten-free tamari soy sauce I use and love. I also buy the low-sodium version.
