I added jasmine rice to make it more filling, and topped it with soy sauce. I also used fresh green beans because I didn’t have asparagus; and I used red, yellow and orange peppers to give it more flavor. Delicious!

I followed the recipe except that I used 1/3 cup of honey instead of 1/4 & I used the juice of 1 larger lime. Once I removed the shrimp, I added the red pepper & asparagus in the same pan I cooked the shrimp in. I added some additional honey & a splash of balsamic vinegar. The dish was very flavorful. I will definitely make it again.

I traded lime for lemon and works just as well
