Ingredients

• Honey

  ⅓ cup or 113g

• Soy sauce

  Made from soy (tamari)

  ¼ cup or 72g

• Garlic

  Raw

  1 tbsp or 9g

• Ginger

  Spices, ground

  1 tsp or 2g

• Shrimp

  Crustaceans, mixed species, raw

  16 oz or 454g

• Olive oil

  Salad or cooking

  2 tsp or 9g

• Brown rice

  Long-grain, raw

  1 cup or 185g

• Broccoli

  Flower clusters, raw

  3 cup flowerets or 213g

• Scallions

  Spring onions or scallions (includes tops and bulb), raw

  1 medium or 15g

Directions

1. Whisk the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger together in a medium bowl.
2. Place shrimp in a large zipped-top bag or tupperware. Pour 1/2 of the marinade mixture on top, give it all a shake or stir, then allow shrimp to marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes or for up to 8-12 hours. Cover and refrigerate the rest of the marinade for step 3. (Time-saving tip: while the shrimp is marinating, steam the broccoli and prepare quick brown rice as per package directions.)
3. Steamed broccoli: Bring a pot of water to boil with a steam tray over top. Add broccoli to the tray, cover, and steam for 4-5 minutes until tender. Rinse under cool water and set aside.
4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place shrimp in the skillet. (Discard used marinade.) Cook shrimp on one side until no longer pink-- about 45 seconds-- then flip shrimp over. Pour in remaining marinade and cook it all until shrimp is cooked through, about 1 minute more.
5. Serve shrimp with cooked marinade sauce and a garnish of green onion. Serve with brown rice and broccoli. Enjoy!
