HONEY GARLIC SHRIMP

If you're looking for an easy, delicious recipe you will want to check this one out! As a college student, there are definitely nights where I need a fast meal to whip up real quick. One of the things I love about this recipe is that it only took me 20 minutes to prepare and cook the entire thing. 

You can serve the shrimp on rice or with some of your favorite vegetables. I served mine over organic quinoa and brown rice. I get these quinoa/brown rice packets that are only $2.50 and take 90 seconds in the microwave to cook. They are so flavorful and beyond easy to prepare.

INGREDIENTS:

- 1/2 lb of shrimp

- 1/3 cup honey

- 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce

- 1 tbs minced garlic 

STEPS:

First, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, and garlic in a bowl. Once the marinade is the same consistency, pour half of it into a plastic baggie and then add the shrimp. Shake it all up and let it sit in the fridge to marinate for 10 minutes. If you aren't on a time constraint you can let the shrimp marinade longer if wanted. 

Heat a little olive oil on a skillet over medium to high heat. Place the shrimp into the pan and let it cook for about 3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp is pink. Add the remaining marinade right before serving the shrimp. 

Enjoy!
