Garlic Honey Lime Shrimp Recipe
Delicious shrimp recipe. Perfect to add to salads, or serve with rice for dinner!
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ cup honey
- 1 lime juiced and zested
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 pound shrimp peeled and deveined
Instructions
- In a bowl mix together olive oil, honey, the zest of the lime, the juice of the lime, garlic, pepper, and salt.
- Rinse off your shrimp. This is to be sure all of the ice is melted, and to give it a good rinse after coming from the deli. Best if you rinse with cold/warm water rather than hot, especially if working with uncooked shrimp, to avoid the shrimp beginning to cook while being rinsed.
- Put shrimp in gallon sized Ziploc bag and dump marinade over the shrimp.
- Make sure the marinade is completely coating all of the shrimp and seal the bag and put it in the fridge.
- Let it marinade for 1-2 hours, the longer you let it marinade the better the flavor.
- On a frying pan over medium heat, warm up the shrimp. I like to pour the marinade over the shrimp while it's heating up so that it can cook in the flavor.
- Cook until the shrimp begins to turn golden brown.
