  3. To make the glaze, combine honey, orange juice, orange zest, garlic powder, red pepper flakes and ginger over medium low heat. Bring to a boil, simmering until thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Serve shrimp immediately, tossed or drizzled with honey mixture, garnished with orange zest, if desired.
