Description
Make a fast, flavorful weeknight dinner with this simple one-pan recipe featuring shrimp and snow peas tossed in a sweet and savory honey garlic glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound fresh snow peas, trimmed
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium recommended)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1 green onion, sliced (for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside half of this sauce mixture; this will be your finishing glaze.
- In a large bowl, toss the shrimp and snow peas with the olive oil. Spread the shrimp and snow peas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the shrimp is nearly opaque.
- While the shrimp bakes, prepare the thickening slurry: Whisk the cornstarch and cold water together in the reserved half of the honey garlic sauce until smooth.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Pour the sauce slurry over the shrimp and snow peas. Gently toss everything on the pan to coat evenly.
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 2 to 4 minutes, or until the shrimp is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened into a glaze.
- Remove from the oven. Drizzle the reserved, uncooked half of the honey garlic sauce over the finished dish.
- Garnish with sliced green onion and sesame seeds before serving. Serve immediately over rice or noodles.
Notes
- For best results, use large shrimp that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, cook the slurry on the stovetop for one minute before adding it to the pan.
- This dish pairs well with steamed white rice or brown rice to soak up the extra sauce.
