Honey Glazed Shrimp

Recipe Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp to the skillet, making sure they are in a single layer.
  4. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are pink and cooked through.
  5. Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the shrimp with chopped parsley.
  6. Serve the honey glazed shrimp hot, with your choice of sides.
