• ½ cup honey

• ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce

• 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger

• 2 tablespoons minced garlic

• ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

• 1 teaspoon cornstarch

• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Prepare the Marinade:

   • In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and cornstarch until smooth.

   • Place the peeled and deveined shrimp into a bowl and add one-third of the marinade.

   • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

   • Add the broccoli florets, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 5–6 minutes until just tender.

   • Remove the broccoli from the skillet and set aside.

3. Cook the Shrimp:

   • In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat.

   • Add the marinated shrimp (discarding the marinade) and cook for 2 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.

   • Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

4. Prepare the Sauce:

   • Add the remaining marinade to the skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

   • Let it cook for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

5. Combine and Serve:

   • Return the cooked shrimp and broccoli to the skillet.

   • Toss to coat the shrimp and broccoli in the sauce and heat through for 1–2 minutes.

   • Serve immediately, optionally over rice or pasta.
