1-Start: Start by marinating the shrimp for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors soak in, then cook quickly to keep it tender. This method takes about 20 minutes total, perfect for weeknight dinners.

2-First: First, take 1 pound of peeled and deveined large shrimp and mix it with ¼ cup soy sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar in a bowl. Let it chill in the refrigerator for that 30-minute marinate to boost the taste. This step ensures the shrimp absorbs all the sweet and savory goodness.

3-Next: Next, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until they turn pink and slightly opaque don’t overcook to keep them juicy. Once done, remove the shrimp and set it aside while you work on the sauce.

4-Then: Then, pour the remaining marinade into the skillet and simmer it until it thickens into a syrupy consistency, which takes just a couple of minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan and toss everything together to coat evenly. Finally, serve it up with a sprinkle of chopped green onions and sesame seeds for a fresh finish.
