Delight in these honey garlic shrimp bowls featuring succulent shrimp glazed with a sweet and savory sauce, served with vibrant broccoli and fluffy rice.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cups cooked white rice, brown rice, or quinoa
- 1 cup broccoli florets, steamed or sautéed
- ¼ cup green onions, finely sliced
- Optional: sesame seeds or crushed red pepper flakes for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the sauce: Whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a small bowl. Set it aside.
- Cook the shrimp: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until pink and curled.
- Glaze with the sauce: Pour the honey garlic mixture into the skillet once the shrimp are perfectly cooked, allowing it to bubble and thicken for about 2 minutes.
- Steam or sauté veggies: If not already cooked, steam the broccoli until bright green and tender, or sauté for caramelization.
- Build your bowl: Scoop rice or quinoa into bowls, top with honey garlic shrimp and sauce, and add broccoli. Garnish with green onions and optional sesame seeds or red pepper flakes.
Notes
For deeper flavor, marinate the shrimp in sauce for 15-30 minutes before cooking. Adjust sweetness and add vegetables as desired.
