Step 1

In a small bowl, stir together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes.

Step 2

Place the shrimp into a separate bowl and pour 1/3 of the sauce on top. Toss to coat the shrimp, then marinate for 15-20 minutes.

Step 3

Heat the oil in a pan on medium-high heat. Add the shrimp (discarding any leftover marinade) and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, until pink and just barely cooked through.

Step 4

Pour the remaining 2/3 sauce into the pan and bring to a simmer, stirring with the shrimp as it slightly reduces and warms through, for about a minute.

Step 5

Turn off the heat, stir in the cilantro or parsley, and top with sliced green onions before serving.
