How to Make This Honey Lime Shrimp

• Make the sauce: Using a small bowl, whisk the garlic, honey, and lime together. Set aside.
• Prepare the shrimp: Season the shrimp well with salt and pepper on both sides and set aside. Using a large skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet along with the honey lime mixture and stir well to coat. Allow the shrimp to cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until pink and fully cooked.
• Serve: Serve topped with fresh chopped cilantro.

What Shrimp Should You Use?

Using a large, wild-caught shrimp is best for this recipe! I would skip using smaller salad shrimp, but it will still world either way.

Can you leave out the honey?

Yes, you can make this recipe totally sweetener-free and leave out the honey, however, you’d want to add more seasoning to make up for taking away the flavor of the honey.

What should you serve with this shrimp?
