Directions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Adjust to taste as needed.
2. Toss the shrimp with half of the sauce, cover, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
3. Cook the brown rice according to package directions.
4. Steam the broccoli over simmering water until crisp-tender, 4–5 minutes, then rinse briefly under cool water to stop cooking and set aside.
5. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp in an even layer and cook about 45 seconds; flip, pour in the remaining sauce, and cook until the shrimp are just opaque and the sauce is bubbling, about 1 minute more.
6. Serve the shrimp and sauce over the cooked rice with the broccoli on the side; garnish with chopped scallions.
