How To Make Spicy Soy Honey Garlic Shrimps
A variation of garlic butter shrimp
What makes this Spicy Soy Honey Garlic Shrimps recipe simple is that it’s just
a variation of the very basic garlic butter shrimp. From its base ingredients,
you can play around with different spices and seasonings to create quick
shrimp dishes that are far from boring.
In fact, I started by experimenting with pandan leaves and brown sugar to make
Pandan Garlic Butter Shrimp. It was garlicky and slightly sweet with a hint of
the fragrance of pandan.
Then, while we were on vacation in Nueva Ecija, I decided to switch brown
sugar with honey because, well, people say it’s healthier than regular sugar.
We also didn’t have pandan at home so I just made it more garlicky and added a
few spoonful of soy sauce.
I thought it was quite phenomenal so I’m sharing this Spicy Soy Honey Garlic
Shrimp recipe with you.
