Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 0.333 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 stalks green onions, finely sliced
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
In a medium bowl, prepare the glaze by whisking together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the shrimp start to turn pink on one side.
Flip the shrimp and pour the prepared hoisin glaze over them. Stir well to coat the shrimp evenly in the sauce.
Reduce the heat slightly and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp are fully cooked and the glaze thickens. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle the shrimp with green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Serve immediately over rice, noodles, or as an appetizer.
