Posted on 287 views

Delicate, sweet shrimp immediately cooked in a nectar soy sauce combination with bunches of garlic. The marinade additionally turns into the sauce for a feast quickly! This simple Honey Garlic Shrimp is a snap to make and is extraordinary served over rice.

All things considered, I utilize crude shrimp that have been deveined and cleaned. I squeeze the tails off and add to a bowl of nectar, garlic, soy sauce, and some different fixings like white pepper and sesame oil.

In the wake of marinating the shrimp for 20 minutes it’s immediately cooked in a hot skillet with oil. The marinade decreases to a tacky sweet sauce.

This nectar garlic shrimp meets up rapidly!

As the shrimp marinates, you steam the rice. I like to utilize jasmine long grain white, yet utilize whatever rice you like.

The magnificently sweet and flavorful sauce that is made to cover the shrimp is sublime. No cornstarch required for this!
