Cooking Method

Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with salt and black pepper.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp and cook for 1–2 minutes per side until pink and nearly cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter in the same skillet.
Add the minced garlic, sliced red chilies, and chili flakes. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, and lime juice. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken slightly.
Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss well to coat each piece in the spicy garlic sauce.
Cook for another 1 minute until the shrimp are fully heated through.
Stir in the green onions and fresh cilantro.
Garnish with sesame seeds if desired and serve immediately with steamed rice, noodles, or your favorite vegetables.
