Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce
- 2 teaspoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the honey mustard sauce.
Place the cleaned shrimp into a large zip-and-steam bag (or use a steam-safe silicone bag). Pour half of the honey mustard sauce over the shrimp, seal the bag, and gently shake to coat the shrimp evenly with the sauce.
Preheat a microwave-safe plate by placing it on the microwave turntable. Lay the sealed zip-and-steam bag flat on the plate.
Cook the shrimp in the microwave on high power for 4-6 minutes, depending on the size of the shrimp. The shrimp are ready when they turn pink and opaque. Be cautious when opening the bag, as hot steam will escape.
While the shrimp are cooking, prepare the dipping sauce by whisking together plain Greek yogurt, the remaining honey mustard sauce, and hot sauce in a small bowl.
Serve the cooked shrimp on a platter, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Accompany with the honey mustard dipping sauce on the side.
Enjoy this quick and delicious dish as an appetizer or light main course!
