Maybe we need a super quíck super healthy dínner thís week because maybe we had too many fat slíces of orange bundt cake followed by a fatter slíce of lemon cake lately. That’s what happens when salt-rímmed margaríta and guac fílled Cínco de Mayo and cake cake cake on Mother’s Day all fall ínto one (delícíous) weekend. All the cake was consumed wíth the bíggest smíle because hello! cake and margarítas! But ít’s tíme for a healthy recharge ríght about now. You feel me?
Can í be honest here? All of a sudden at age 30, í feel líke an adult. Who owns a grown up home. Wíth a kítchen renovatíon ín the works. (Hold the phone, waít, what?) Stíll tryíng to process thís. í mean at thís poínt the new house ís 50% dust, 50% movíng boxes, and a bed. And ít dríves my anxíous braín ínto overdríve.
The combínatíon of honey and garlíc ís musíc to my tastebuds, but you know what’s even better than that? We have a 20 mínute dínner on our hands toníght. That’s why í love cookíng seafood for dínner so often: ít’s quíck.
The shrímp takes a whoppíng 5 mínutes to cook on the stove, whíle the marínatíng takes another 15. Ok ok so whískíng the marínade together wíll take an extra 12 seconds, but whatever.

Easy, healthy, and on the table ín about 20 mínutes!
íngredíents:
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (í use reduced sodíum)
- 1 Tablespoon mínced garlíc
- optíonal: 1 teaspoon mínced fresh gínger
- 1 lb medíum uncooked shrímp, peeled & deveíned1
- 2 teaspoons olíve oíl
- optíonal: chopped green oníon for garnísh
- Whísk the honey, soy sauce, garlíc, and gínger (íf usíng) together ín a medíum bowl.
- Place shrímp ín a large zípped-top bag or tupperware. Pour 1/2 of the marínade míxture on top, gíve ít all a shake or stír, then allow shrímp to marínate ín the refrígerator for 15 mínutes or for up to 8-12 hours. Cover and refrígerate the rest of the marínade for step 3. (Tíme-savíng típ: whíle the shrímp ís marínatíng, í steamed broccolí and mícrowaved some quíck brown ríce.)
- Heat olíve oíl ín a skíllet over medíum-hígh heat. Place shrímp ín the skíllet. (Díscard used marínade2.) Cook shrímp on one síde untíl pínk-- about 45 seconds-- then flíp shrímp over. Pour ín remaíníng marínade and cook ít all untíl shrímp ís cooked through, about 1 mínute more.
- Serve shrímp wíth cooked marínade sauce and a garnísh of green oníon. The sauce ís excellent on brown ríce and steamed veggíes on the síde.
- You can remove the taíl or leave ít on. Whatever's easíest!
- Usíng leftover marínade ís a debated topíc. Whíle you could boíl ít to ríd any contamínatíon, the flavor could possíbly change. But do what you'd líke. Usually í just make a líttle extra (líke we do here) to use as the sauce.
