Begin by rinsing the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Ensure they are peeled and deveined.

In a bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and olive oil. Mix in cornstarch if a thicker sauce is desired.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque.

Continue cooking the shrimp for another 1-2 minutes until firm and shiny.

Pour the honey garlic mixture over the shrimp and toss gently for about one minute.

Reduce heat and simmer the shrimp in the sauce for 3-5 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
