Ingredients
Instructions
-
- Heat butter in a nonstick pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
-
- Melt, swirling pan and stirring occasionally for about 3 minutes, or until the foam settles; the butter begins to change in colour to a golden brown and has a nutty fragrance.
-
- Add the honey, lemon juice, soy sauce, and garlic; stir well to combine all of the flavours together and cook for 30 seconds until the garlic is fragrant. Remove from heat.
-
- Pour out just over half of the browned butter from the pan (liquid only), leaving 2 tablespoons of the honey butter mixture in the pan, and reserve the rest for later.
-
- Add half of the shrimp to the honey/butter in the pan; sear for about 2 minutes each side, or until just cooked through and no longer opaque. Transfer to a plate; set aside.
-
- Wipe the pan over with a paper towel and add 2 more tablespoons of the honey/butter mixture to the pan.
-
- Sear the remaining shrimp for 2 minutes each side, or until just cooked through and no longer opaque.
-
- Add the cooked shrimp back into the pan, and pour in the remaining honey/butter sauce; stirring through the shrimp to evenly coat. Season with salt and pepper if desired and garnish with parsley.
-
- Serve with steamed vegetables; over rice or with a salad
