Prepare the shrimp: Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season them with salt and pepper.
Cook the shrimp: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the cooked shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Make the sauce: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Add honey and soy sauce: Stir in the honey and soy sauce, stirring constantly until the honey has dissolved and the sauce is well combined.
Add butter and lemon juice: Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt into the sauce. Stir in the lemon juice. If you like a bit of heat, you can also add red pepper flakes at this point for some spice.
Return the shrimp to the skillet: Once the sauce has thickened slightly and everything is well combined, add the cooked shrimp back to the skillet. Toss the shrimp in the sauce until they are evenly coated.
Garnish and serve: Sprinkle chopped parsley over the shrimp for garnish. Serve the sticky honey garlic butter shrimp immediately over cooked rice or noodles.
Enjoy!
This dish is perfect for a quick and flavorful dinner that will impress your family and friends.
