HONEY-GARLIC SHRIMP
While it may sound like a plain, generic item you see on a menu at the food court at the mall, honey-garlic shrimp is actually one of the most exciting and delicious garlic shrimp recipes I know. It's the perfect balance of sweet and savory while still packing a substantial garlic punch, plus it's extremely fast and simple to make. This recipe uses half the honey that typical recipes use and allows the natural sweetness of the shrimp to shine through. Serve over hot cooked rice or the starchy base of your choice such as noodles.

Steps:
- Make sure shrimp are fully thawed and well drained. Keep in the refrigerator while you make the marinade.
- Whisk garlic, honey, ginger, soy sauce, and fish sauce together in a bowl.
- Add shrimp and toss thoroughly with a spatula for 2 minutes until completely coated. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes; toss occasionally while marinating.
- Brush a large nonstick skillet with oil and heat over high heat until you begin to see small wisps of smoke. Use tongs to immediately transfer shrimp into the hot skillet in a single layer. Set excess marinade aside.
- Sear shrimp for 2 minutes, then flip over. Dump in marinade and cook for 1 minute. Turn off heat and flip shrimp once more; let sit for about 1 minute. The marinade in the pan will reduce down to a beautiful glaze just from the residual heat in the pan. Garnish with green onion.

HOT HONEY SHRIMP
Chile powder adds sting, honey lends sweetness, and butter gives a creamy richness to these succulent roasted shrimp. Even better, the dish comes together in minutes, making it an ideal after-work meal or extremely speedy appetizer. The shrimp are also excellent tucked into a baguette for a shrimp sandwich. If you happen to have a jar of hot honey (chile-spiced honey), you can use that instead of combining the honey and cayenne. Just be sure to use a light hand with the lime juice at the very end; hot honey also contains vinegar, so taste as you go. If you'd like to double the recipe, you can. Just use two baking pans so as not to crowd the shrimp.

Tips:
- Use large shrimp: For the best results, use shrimp that are at least 16/20 count. This will ensure that they are large enough to hold the sauce and not overcook.
- Make sure the shrimp is deveined: Deveining the shrimp removes the digestive tract, which can give the shrimp a bitter taste. You can devein the shrimp yourself using a sharp knife or you can buy them pre-deveined.
- Use a light oil for frying: A light oil, such as vegetable or canola oil, will help to prevent the shrimp from sticking to the pan and will also help to keep them crispy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying the shrimp, don't overcrowd the pan. This will cause the shrimp to steam instead of fry and will result in soggy shrimp.
- Cook the shrimp until they are opaque: The shrimp are done cooking when they are opaque and pink. Overcooking the shrimp will make them tough and chewy.
- Make the sauce while the shrimp is cooking: This will help to ensure that the sauce is hot and ready when the shrimp are done cooking.
- Serve the shrimp immediately: Honey chile shrimp is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that the shrimp are crispy and the sauce is hot.
Conclusion:
Honey chile shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and spicy flavor, honey chile shrimp is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
