Honey Mustard Garlic Shrimp - a delicious seafood recipe that's super easy to make!
Honey Mustard Garlic Shrimp - easy shrimp recipe that takes maximum 30 minutes to make, most likely even quicker than that! Big, jumbo shrimp is best to be used in this recipe.
I served this shrimp to 4 people, including myself, as an appetizer, and everybody loved it! You can definitely serve this as dinner for 4 people, if you add side dishes, such as steamed or blanched veggies or greens, pasta, or rice.
Enjoy this easy shrimp recipe!

This was our dinner tonight and it was absolutely delicious! Served with green beans and rice and it not only looked beautiful plated but tasted divine. This will definitely be on the menu again. Once again Julia, thank you for an amazing recipe!
Della-Marie, thank you for such a wonderful and positive comment and Happy Holidays! 🙂 Glad you enjoyed this - your choice of side dishes is excellent!
Please only buy fresh local to US shrimp ! It makes a difference.
I loved the garlic shrimp recipe. Can I make it the day before to use as an appetizer? How would I reheat and would the shrimp become tough? Thank u
Christine
You can make it a day before. Keep it refrigerated in an air-tight container. I would reheat the shrimp on a low heat in a skillet on the stove-top, constantly stirring, for about 5 minutes.
This looks so great! Dijon mustard is so delicious and one of my favorite ingredients to add to a dish. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, Billy!
Can you use cooked shrimp.?
Made this for dinner tonight and it was yummy....love the sauce! It was quick and easy and I will definitely be making this again. I did cook my shrimp a little longer and it was perfect. Thanks for the great recipe!
You're welcome! I am glad you liked the recipe!
Made this for dinner tonight and it was simply delicious! I served it on pasta with asparagus on the side. So very good! The sauce made me lick the spoon!
I plan on making this in a little bit..but it seems from the instructions that it should be cooked a bit longer than just a minute and 30 seconds. Let's see what happens!
Seems so delicious and healthy. I would definitely try this on weekend.
This looks awesome! As soon as I get home from Cori's I am making it!
I hope you liked it! 🙂
Thank you for this creation; I've used only "creamy" ingredients to make shrimps and this one is definitely on my to do list. Have a pleasant day !
Thank you! 🙂
I've tried this same recipe with chicken, but never thought about using shrimps. Made it tonight with brown rice and spinach and it came out fabulous!!! Thank you!
Monica, you're very welcome! I am glad you liked it! 🙂

Sabrina, thank you so much! 🙂
Love shrimp and your recipe sounds terrific.
Thank you, Karen! 🙂
It's as delicious as it looks! I saw this on Pinterest on Friday and was craving it all weekend.
Fast forward to today, I decided to make it with the help of the little ones.
It came out smelling and looking great, but tasting it was a whole other experience!
Hands down the best shrimp I've ever had. 🙂
WOW, Sarah! Thank you for such a nice comment! So glad you enjoyed the shrimp!
