Crunchy Creamy Sweet - Easy Recipes for Busy Parents

Honey Garlic Shrimp

July 2, 2020 by Anna 3 Comments

This Honey Garlic Shrimp is marinated in sweet sauce, then cooked together in a pan. Serve it with broccoli and rice for a quick and easy dinner!

This dish is easy to make, just like my Garlic Butter Shrimp and Teriyaki Shrimp. Seafood cooks quickly, so you can have dinner on the table in 15 minutes!

One of the easiest shrimp dinners you can make is this Honey Garlic Shrimp. It’s made with 5 ingredients (plus salt, pepper and oil) that you most likely already have in your pantry and fridge. Easy yet bursting with flavor! Raw shrimp is marinated in sweet garlic mixture, then cooked until plump and juicy. Marinate is turned into sauce and everything tossed together. Talk about easy!

Crispy Zucchini Fries

These Crispy Zucchini Fries are coated with Parmesan breading and baked in the oven until golden brown. Perfectly crispy and delicious, served with ketchup or any dip you like!

Even without frying in oil, these zucchini fries are crispy, just like my baked Sweet Potato Fries. The addition of Parmesan to breading makes it delicious, just like in my Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower recipe!

If you have an abundance of zucchini in your garden or need a new way to enjoy this summer vegetable, these Zucchini Fries are perfect! Simply cut zucchini into sticks, bread and bake in the oven. No need for frying in oil! The Parmesan coating is salty, crispy and delicious. I use it a lot with other vegetables and it is my favorite.

Easy Hibachi Chicken

This Easy Hibachi Chicken is amazingly easy to make at home! Just cook the chicken with soy sauce, saute vegetables and make fried rice, all in just one pan!

I serve this dish with Yum Yum Sauce and fried or plain rice. All of the sides can be made ahead of time to save on prep!

I am expanding my recipe collection of takeout dinners made at home to Japanese steakhouse dishes! This Hibachi Chicken is currently my favorite. It’s incredibly flavorful and so quick and easy to make. I serve it with plain or fried rice and saute whatever vegetables I have on hand. This dish can be made ahead of time and serve for lunch and dinner throughout the week.
