INGREDIENTS
- 1/3 cup runny honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1-2 tsp chilli crisp (depending on your desired heat level)
- 2 garlic cloves finely grated
- 1" knob fresh ginger finely grated
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 2 tsp water
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1lb medium raw shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 loaf sliced sourdough toasted and buttered
- chopped flat-leaf parsley for garnish
- sliced green onion for garnish
METHOD
- Start by making the sauce and the slurry (a slurry is a combination of a liquid and starch that helps thicken a sauce). For the sauce, in a small bowl whisk together honey, soy sauce, chilli crisp, garlic and ginger. Set aside. For the slurry, in a separate small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water and set aside.
- Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet and add the shrimp. Cook, stirring occasionally for a few minutes or until the shrimp have turned pink. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
- Pour the prepared sauce into the hot pan and let it come to a simmer. Once the sauce is simmering add the slurry and mix until thickened, about a minute. Add the shrimp back to the skillet and mix until the shrimp are nicely coated with sauce and warmed through.
- To serve, spoon the saucy shrimp over toasted sourdough and garnish with parsley and green onions. Enjoy!
