Henry's at the Farm Honey Glazed Shrimp

Posted September 15, 2015 6:00 am

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 pound 15 count shrimp, about 16 shrimp, 4 per person

3 garlic cloves, sliced

2 tablespoons brandy or cognac

3 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

4 cups arugula leaves

Sesame seeds and thinly sliced scallions (for garnish)

Heat oil on medium-high in a large skillet. Saute shrimp for about 2 to 3 minutes per side or until pink and just cooked through and opaque. Lower the heat to medium and add the garlic. Cook another minute, making sure the garlic doesn't burn.

Deglaze the pan with the brandy or cognac, scrapping up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Reduce slightly. Add the honey and with tongs, coat the shrimp evenly. Move them around until they are all evenly glazed with the honey. Add the butter and mix until it is blended into the sauce and adds a glistening appearance.

Place arugula on each plate and then arrange the shrimp on each plate, spooning over some sauce. Garnish with sesame seeds and scallions. Serve immediately.

Serves 4 as a first course or 2 as a main course
