- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ lemon
- 1 teaspoon honey
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons oil
Instructions
- Pat dry the shrimp with a paper towel on both sides.
- In a small bowl, combine the granulated garlic, granulated onion, paprika, and chili powder.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

- Cook the shrimp for about 1 minute on each side and then add the honey and lemon juice. Check for seasoning and serve warm!
Notes
- Take the shrimp out of the fridge for at least 20 minutes before cooking and pat dry the shrimp with a paper towel. Make sure the shrimp are fully thawed, dry, and at room temperature right before cooking. This will ensure even cooking and a nice sear.
- Once the shrimp are fully cooked through, taste one and adjust the recipe to your liking. If you want some heat, add red crushed pepper flakes, if you want it sweeter, add more honey!
- For a low-carb and keto-friendly option, omit the honey!
