Today's Ingredients I'm such a fool. I always forget about shrimp as a lean choice of protein. So here's your reminder too: Shrimp is a protein-packed seafood that deserves as much attention as salmon, tuna, and even branzino (if you're fancy like that). And today's recipe really brings out the best in this undervalued crustacean.

Kenny Thapoung Managing Newsletter Editor, Healthline   Written by Kenny Thapoung January 14, 2024 • 2 min read Recipe of the Week Seriously, I have to stop sleeping on shrimp. It's a low calorie protein that's rich in several vital nutrients, including iodine, iron, zinc, and magnesium. People tend to be concerned about its high cholesterol levels, but you don't need to be. Shrimp is low in saturated fat, has omega-3 fatty acids, and can actually help raise your HDL ("good cholesterol") levels. This means that, overall, you don't need to be too concerned about eating it — frozen or fresh. What really gives this particular recipe its distinct zing is the sauce, which features honey, sriracha, and butter. A little sweetness, a slight heat, and some richness from fat are a flavor combination we can all get behind. To make this a complete meal, serve the shrimp over a whole grain and a vegetable of your choice! Broccoli sounds like an excellent choice to me. Be sure to check out the YouTube video to learn more about the health benefits of this dish! I'm also going to add the ingredients here for you to screenshot before running to the grocery store. Ingredients: 3 tablespoons honey 1 tablespoon sriracha or chile-garlic sauce 1 teaspoon lime juice 1/2 teaspoon lime zest 1 teaspoon grated ginger 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1 pound large (16–20 count) raw shrimp, peeled and deveined 1 tablespoon unsalted butter Chopped fresh scallions for serving Directions: Whisk honey, sriracha, lime juice, lime zest, ginger, and salt in a small bowl. Place next to the stove. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook, stirring, until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Add the honey mixture and butter. Cook, stirring, until the sauce coats the shrimp and cooks down slightly, about 1 minute more.
