Honey Garlic Shrimp

A tasty and delicious quick dinner. I also used some cornstarch to thicken the sauce up a bit, even though it wasn't in the original recipe. Adapted from Sallysbakingaddiction.com.

1 tsp.

minced fresh ginger (or 1/4 tsp. dried)

1 lb.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Whisk the honey, garlic, soy sauce and ginger (if using) in a medium bowl.

* Step 2

Place the shrimp and half of the marinade in a large Ziploc bag or Tupperware with lid. Give them a quick stir and place in the fridge for a minimum of 15 minutes.

* Step 3

Cover and place the rest of the marinade separately in the fridge for later use. Mix the cornstarch and water into a small bowl and set it aside.

* Step 4

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place shrimp into the skillet and discard the used marinade.

* Step 5

Cook shrimp on one side until cooked through...this only takes a couple of minutes. Then flip the shrimp and pour the unused marinade in the skillet. Stir in the cornstarch slurry.
