Description
Cook shrimp and snow peas together in one pan for a quick, flavorful weeknight dinner with minimal cleanup.
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
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water (slurry)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 green onions, sliced for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easier 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.
- Place the shrimp and snow peas on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat lightly.
- Pour the first half of the honey garlic sauce over the shrimp and snow peas. Spread them into a single layer.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the shrimp is pink and cooked through.
- While the shrimp bakes, return the reserved half of the sauce to a small saucepan. Whisk in the cornstarch slurry. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the sesame oil.
- Remove the pan from the oven. Drizzle the thickened glaze evenly over the cooked shrimp and snow peas. Toss gently on the pan to coat everything.
- Garnish with sliced green onions before serving immediately.
Notes
- You can use a large skillet on the stovetop instead of the oven; cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the shrimp is done.
- If you prefer a less sweet glaze, reduce the honey by one tablespoon.
- For a complete meal, serve this dish over rice or quinoa.
