Eat-in tonight with this recipe for sweet and crunchy Honey Walnut Shrimp. 

Honey Walnut Shrimp

water

c. sugar

c. walnuts

shrimp,

Kosher salt

black pepper

eggs,

Vegetable oil

mayonnaise

tbsp. honey

heavy cream

white rice,

green onions,

Just made this tonight and it was delicious. My husband went back for seconds and could have eaten even more. He hardly ever goes back for another helping. Will definitely keep this recipe and make again and again.

This recipe was amazing. I recommend maybe doubling the sauce because it sort of loses its flavor once you add the rice. Also I added sriracha but other than that it's fantastic.

We catch our own shrimp and this was a very flavorful way to use them. Never used cornstarch as a breading and I was delighted.  Very tasty.  Used half and half and not heavy cream

Made this last night and my husband and son both said this was the best shrimp dish I’ve ever made. Delish!

Was very easy to make and my family loves it. I would either add sriracha to the sauce or cayenne to the batter to bring more flavor. I coat with egg-flour-cornstarch.

SO good :)!  - I found this pretty easy to make (took me maybe 45 minutes my first time) and I recommend using colossal shrimp!

Made this last night and just not worth it. Not as good as any restaurant's version & quite messy to make

This meal was fantastic and easy to make.  Will never get Panda Express.  Give it a 5- star for sure.

The honey sauce is very heavy and creamy more than glaze-y.

Me and my family loves the dish and easy dish to dollow

Made this last night and it was so good! I was worried that the mayonnaise sauce wouldn't taste good but it was incredible! Really yummy recipe.

A video would be really helpful. Mine tastes good but looks nothing like the picture
