Ingredients

1 pound peeled and deveined large shrimp
¼ cup soy sauce
3 minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
chopped green onion for garnish
sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

In a medium sized bow, add 1 pound peeled and deveined large shrimp, ¼ cup soy sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar. Stir until mixed and shrimp is coated evenly. Cover and let sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
In a medium-sized skillet over medium high heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and add to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until shrimp is pink. Remove the shrimp and set aside on a plate.
Add the marinade to the skillet and let it simmer until it is thick and looks like a syrup. Add the shrimp back to the skillet and toss in the sauce. Serve with chopped green onion for garnish and sesame seeds for garnish if desired.
