Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Arrange the peeled shrimp in an even layer in the baking dish.

Whisk together the honey, soy sauce, and garlic in a small bowl. Pour mixture over the shrimp, then toss with a rubber spatula until evenly coated.

Bake the shrimp on middle rack of oven just until they turn opaque, 8-9 minutes. Be careful not to overbake.

Check to see that shrimp are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Serve shrimp immediately, drizzled with any sauce left in the baking dish, and garnished with lime slices and green onion if you like.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Shrimp Size Matters 🦐
Choose large or jumbo shrimp for this recipe to ensure even cooking and maximum flavor absorption from the honey garlic sauce.
Marinade Magic ✨
For maximum flavor, let the shrimp marinate in the honey-soy-garlic mixture for 10-15 minutes before baking, but no longer to prevent the seafood from becoming tough.
Prevent Overcooking 🕒
Bake shrimp just until they turn opaque and curl slightly - typically 6-8 minutes at 400°F - to maintain their tender, juicy texture.
Lime Zest Boost 🍋
Add fresh lime zest along with the lime slices to enhance the citrusy brightness and complement the honey-garlic flavor profile.
Garlic Intensity Control 🧄
Mince garlic finely and let it sit for 10 minutes before cooking to activate its full flavor compounds and maximize its aromatic potential.
