Description

Honey garlic shrimp & broccoli is a fast, flavorful, one-pan dinner that’s better than takeout. Ready in just 20 minutes, it’s loaded with bold, sticky sauce, tender shrimp, and crisp broccoli.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 pound large shrimp (peeled, deveined, tails on or off)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cups chopped broccoli
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  2. Add shrimp to a bowl and pour in 1/3 of the sauce to marinate.
  3. Mix cornstarch into the reserved sauce and set aside.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Sauté broccoli with salt and pepper for 5–6 minutes. Set aside.
  5. Add butter to the skillet. Cook shrimp 2 minutes per side until pink.
  6. Pour in reserved sauce and simmer until thickened, about 2–3 minutes.
  7. Return broccoli to skillet, toss everything to coat.
  8. Serve hot over rice, noodles, or cauliflower rice.

Notes

Marinate shrimp for 30 minutes for deeper flavor.

Frozen shrimp work perfectly—just thaw and pat dry.

Use fresh or frozen broccoli. If frozen, thaw and pat dry before cooking.

Tails on add flavor and presentation, but feel free to remove them.
