This lightened-up version of honey walnut shrimp skips the deep-frying and gets its crunch from charred broccoli. The sauce is luscious and slightly sweet, balanced with a large squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
This recipe has minimal prep (the only thing you need to slice are scallions for garnish!), so it easily comes together in under 30 minutes. Traditionally, honey walnut shrimp are battered and deep-fried before being tossed in the creamy sauce. This lightened-up version eliminates these two steps, so the dish gets its crispiness from charred broccoli, which is served alongside the saucy shrimp. The sauce is luscious and slightly sweet, balanced with a large squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
The shrimp and walnuts are seasoned with garlic and onion, adding savoriness to the dish. Feel free to sprinkle the shrimp with a pinch of chili flakes for some welcome heat. \Obviously this is called honey walnut shrimp, but we’re giving you the green light to replace the nuts with cashews or peanuts. You can chop them or leave them whole. Want to amp up the textures and flavors? Stir a small amount of toasted sesame oil into the sauce or finish with a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. For some added freshness, top with a mound of fresh cilantro. Or, go the extra mile and reach into the fridge for your jar of chili crisp, a crunchy, spicy Chinese condiment that tastes good on almost anything. \In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets with 2 tablespoons of oil and a large pinch of salt. Arrange on one half of a rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Using the same bowl, toss shrimp, walnuts, granulated garlic and onion, 1 tablespoon oil, and a large pinch of salt. After broccoli has roasted for 10 minutes, carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and arrange shrimp and walnuts on the other side. Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue roasting until shrimp is cooked through and broccoli begins to char, 8 to 10 minutes. \In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, heavy cream, honey, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. In a medium bowl, toss hot cooked shrimp and walnuts with half the sauce. Arrange honey walnut shrimp and broccoli over rice. Drizzle with more sauce, as desired. Garnish with sliced scallions, and if using, a pinch of chili flakes
