Instructions
- Place the shrimp in a resealable bag or medium bowl.
- In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, mix together the minced garlic, minced ginger, olive oil, honey, and soy sauce to make the marinade.
- Pour half of the marinade over the shrimp, massaging through the bag or stirring to coat. Reserve the remaining marinade. Marinate the shrimp in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Heat a medium pan over medium heat with some olive oil. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and discard the marinade. Add the shrimp to the pan and cook for about 1 minute, then flip.

- Continue cooking the marinade in the pan until it reduces and thickens, about 5 minutes.
