For the Shrimp
- 2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 3 tablespoons Roland® Olive Oil, divided
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For the Honey Sriracha Sauce
- 1/2 - 1 cup Roland® Spicy Sriracha Chili Sauce
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, 1 stick
- 10 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup honey, or more to taste
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/2 tablespoon lime zest, about 1 lime
- Kosher salt, to taste
- 2 tablespoons green onion, plus more to garnish
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, plus more to garnish
Directions
For the Shrimp
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drizzle the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of oil, then season with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Toss the shrimp to combine until well coated with seasonings evenly on all sides
- Add more oil to a hot skillet, then begin searing the shrimp, over medium-high heat, working in batches and adding more oil as needed. Be careful not to overcrowd the skillet.
- Cook the shrimp until a nice crust is achieved, and the shrimp is fully cooked through, about 1-2 minutes per side (but this can depend on the size of your shrimp!) Then remove the shrimp from the skillet and set it aside
For the Honey Sriracha Sauce
- To the same skillet without cleaning it, reduce the heat to medium-low, and add in the butter to melt
- Once the butter has melted, add in the garlic, honey, and the sriracha sauce
- Allow the mixture to simmer, stirring often, for 5-10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking
- After the sauce has thickened, add lime zest, lime juice, green onions, and parsley. Stir to combine, and adjust seasonings to taste
To Assemble and Serve
- Add the shrimp back to the skillet to gently reheat it, and toss to combine with the sauce
- Garnish with more parsley and green onions. Serve with lime wedges, and enjoy
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop, or in the microwave at 50% power. Keep in mind, that each time you reheat shrimp, they will continue to cook, so avoid reheating them too much so they don't become rubbery.
