Honey Sriracha Shrimp

Sizzling skillet shrimp caramelized in an intoxicating Sriracha honey garlic butter and served with cilantro and lime wedges. Quick, easy, and deliciously addicting.

Yields: Serves 2-4

Ingredients

1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
1 lime, cut into wedges

Instructions

Place a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the shrimp dry. Add the butter to the skillet to melt. Stir in the honey, Sriracha, and garlic cloves. When the mixture is bubbly and simmering, add the shrimp to the pan in a single layer. Cook 2 minutes, allowing to get browned and caramelized on one side, then, using tongs, turn the shrimp and finish cooking another 1-2 minutes (cooking time will vary depending on the size of your shrimp) or until cooked through but not overdone. Remove the skillet from the heat. Spoon the pan sauces over the shrimp and sprinkle with cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Serve the shrimp promptly with lime wedges.
