Notes

Shrimp- You can use fresh raw shrimp or frozen shrimp. If you use frozen shrimp I would recommend letting them thaw out completely in a bowl and then discard the excess water. Soy sauce- You can use gluten free soy sauce, tahini, or coconut aminos. Garlic- You can use 1 teaspoon of garlic powder if you don't have fresh garlic. Rice wine vinegar- You can use apple cider vinegar. What does honey sriracha taste like? Honey sriracha sauce is sweet, spicy, and tangy. It's made with honey, sriracha, soy sauce, garlic, and rice vinegar. How long do you cook shrimp? Cook shrimp in a skillet pan for about 5 minutes or until it has turned an opaque and slightly pink color. Should you rinse shrimp before cooking? Rinse the shrimp under color water then dry with a paper towel before cooking. with your favorite vegetables shrimp tacos- use fresh corn tortillas and top the tacos with a tangy coleslaw with brown rice with cauliflower rice in a stir fry with vegetables and soba noodles Optional- I love adding a squeeze of lime juice, green onions, and a little bit of sesame seeds on top of the shrimp. You can also grate some fresh ginger into the sauce while cooking. If you have any extra sauce you can save it and use it to toss with some crispy Brussel sprouts or your favorite vegetable for a sweet and spicy side dish. Air fryer- If you want a crispy texture to your shrimp, you can cook them in the air fryer at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 3 minutes, flip them, and then cook them for an additional 1-5 minutes. Grilling- Thread the shrimp onto wooden skewers and grill over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes a side. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can reheat the shrimp in a skillet on medium heat for 5-6 minutes.
