Ingredients

  • 1 pound large shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup water divided
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • Steamed white rice for serving
  • Pickled carrots, sliced cucumber, jalapeno, avocado, pineapple, sliced red onion or green onion, cilantro, red pepper flakes, sesame seeds, lime wedges, sriracha mayo for serving

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a skillet set over medium-high heat.
  • In two batches, cook the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until pick. Transfer shrimp to a bowl, then add water, soy sauce, honey, garlic, sesame oil and ginger to the skillet, whisking to combine. Bring mixture to a boil.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and remaining water. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the skillet and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes, until thick and pasty.
  • Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat evenly in the sauce. (If you like a lot of sauce in your rice bowl, double the ingredients for the sauce.)

Notes

  • Nutritional info includes only the shrimp, teriyaki sauce, and rice. Any additional toppings are not included in the nutritional calculation and will vary depending on what you add.
  • For sriracha mayo, mix ½ cup mayo, 1 tbsp sriracha, and 1 tsp soy sauce. Refrigerate leftovers.
  • Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
