Ingredients

Shrimp and Vegetables

  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined Tails on or off as preferred.
  • 2 cups broccoli florets Or other dense vegetables.
  • other seasonal vegetables (bell pepper, snap peas, zucchini, asparagus) Use your favorites; adjust cooking time if necessary.

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup honey Can substitute with maple syrup.
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce Low sodium preferred.
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated Ground ginger can be used but fresh is preferred.
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced Grated garlic will also work.
  • 1 tbsp lime juice Freshly squeezed for the best flavor.
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil For flavor.
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes Optional for heat.

Garnish

  • 2 tbsp green onions, chopped Adds freshness when sprinkled on top.
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds For a nice crunchy finish.

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment or foil for easier cleanup.
  • If using dense vegetables, such as broccoli or carrots, roast them first. Add them to the pan and roast for about 10-12 minutes before adding the shrimp.

Cooking

  • While the vegetables roast, prep the sauce by mixing together honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, lime juice, and sesame oil in a bowl.
  • Once the vegetables have roasted, pat the shrimp dry and arrange them on the pan with the veggies.
  • Drizzle the sauce over the shrimp and toss everything gently to coat.
  • Return the pan to the oven and roast for an additional 6-9 minutes, flipping or tossing halfway through, until the shrimp are pink and curled into an 'C' shape.

Serving

  • Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
  • Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

Make sure to pat the shrimp dry before tossing with sauce for better adherence. The shrimp cooks quickly, so keep an eye on the time to avoid overcooking.
