Shrimp reminds me of family gatherings because my dad always picks up shrimp with cocktail sauce as an appetizer. Our family destroys that app in minutes! My family loves shrimp!
I haven’t always been a fan but as I get older I like shrimp more and more. Especially when it’s in recipes like this honey garlic shrimp. I love to eat it to switch it up from chicken and beef and it’s great for meatless Monday or Fridays during lent!
If you’re familiar around here you know I’m a sucker for sheet pan meals like sheet pan chicken fajitas, sheet pan sausage and veggies and butternut squash and apples. They’re so easy and you only have one pan to clean!
Ingredients for Honey Garlic Shrimp:
Shrimp is the star of the show of course. Try to buy fresh shrimp from your grocery store, but you can probably find it frozen too. You can take the tails off before you bake them or you can leave them on because they look prettier. Just make sure everyone takes them off before eating!
Coconut aminos is a large portion of the sauce and it’s essentially soy sauce, minus the soy. It tastes just like it! You can get it at most grocery stores, especially ones like Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s.
Garlic makes a big portion of the sauce’s flavor so we’re using 4 cloves in this recipe!
Honey is the other star of the sauce. It makes this sauce a little sticky and a little sweet!
Is Honey Garlic Shrimp Healthy?
This recipe for honey garlic shrimp is really healthy! It’s both gluten free and dairy free and because it’s only sweetened with honey it fits well into an anti-inflammatory diet. It also fits really well into a vegetarian diet. You will feel so good after eating this healthy dinner.
What goes with honey garlic shrimp?
You can serve it over rice or you can add some extra broccoli to the pan to make lots of veggies on the side. You could also serve it over rice noodles or quinoa!
How to Make Honey Garlic Shrimp:
Start by marinading the shrimp for 15 minutes. While it’s marinating, start roasting the broccoli because it takes longer to cook. When it’s done marinating, remove the broccoli from the oven and push it to one side. Add the shrimp to the other side of the pan and put everything back in the oven for 10-12 more minutes or until the shrimp is translucent and cooked. Serve with extra sauce!

I’m making this tonight! In the “for the shrimp” section, there is listed “2 tsp olive oil”, but I don’t see it used. Is it for the sauce? I see olive oil for roasting the broccoli, but not anywhere for the shrimp. Thx
I came for the answer to this.
It goes in with the sauce!
Delicious and such a perfect easy dinner recipe! This will definitely be added to our weekly dinner rotation. 🙂
Love to hear that! Thanks!
Can you post the nutritional information for the recipe?
Is the lemon juice just for garnish at the end or part of the sauce? It is listed in the ingredients for the shrimp, but I don’t see it in the directions at all.
Hey Jenna! Thanks for pointing that out. That was a typo in the description and the lemon juice was accidentally not included. This recipe was tested and written with the lemon juice in the sauce. I updated the typo. Thanks again!
How yummy and delicious this looks! Thank you for sharing your recipe!
You’re welcome, Amy!
