Instructions

Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger until well combined to form the honey garlic sauce.
Cook the shrimp: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.
Glaze the shrimp: Pour the prepared honey garlic sauce into the skillet with the shrimp. Allow the sauce to bubble and coat the shrimp evenly for about 2 minutes, stirring gently to prevent burning and ensure an even glaze.
Prepare the broccoli: While the shrimp cooks, steam or sauté the broccoli florets until they turn bright green and are tender-crisp, enhancing their natural flavor and maintaining their vibrant color.
Assemble the bowls: Serve the glazed shrimp over cooked white rice or quinoa. Top the bowls with steamed or sautéed broccoli and garnish with finely sliced green onions for a fresh finish.

Notes

You can substitute tamari for soy sauce to make this dish gluten-free.
For added crunch, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top before serving.
Adjust the amount of garlic and ginger according to your taste preference for stronger or milder flavors.
Quinoa is a great alternative to white rice for added protein and fiber.
Ensure the shrimp is cooked just until opaque to avoid rubbery texture.
