Sticky Ginger Shrimp

This recipe was posted on Facebook by my friend Allyson, and I'm posting it here so as not to lose track of it. I'm not a big shrimp fan, so I'll sub out chicken and let you know how that is. For those of you who do like shrimp, doesn't this look yummy?!

In skillet sauté the following "until flavors bloom":
1T sesame oil
4 cloves minced garlic
4 t grated ginger.

Add:
1/4 C. honey
2-3 T soy sauce
1/2 t red pepper flakes

Simmer until reduced and thickened.  Add peeled, deveined shrimp and toss until cooked and coated.

Serve with steamed broccoli and brown rice which is cooked per directions with 2t sesame oil.  Toss 1/4 cup chopped scallions in finished rice. Sprinkle toasted sesame seed and finely julienned fresh ginger over dish.
