Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Peaches and Rice: Toss everything together for the peach salad. Prep anything else you might serve this with (I like rice).

2. 2

   Shrimp Seasoning: Toss the shrimp with the spices.

3. 3

   Cook Shrimp: Heat a drizzle of avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until no longer translucent, about 2 minutes per side.

4. 4

   Finish: Add a knob of butter and a drizzle of honey at the end of cooking to toss with the shrimp and pull up some of the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. This will also make the shrimp saucy, glazey, and delicious.

5. 5

   You’re Done! Yum! Plate the shrimp over rice with a big scoop of that peach salad! So yum.
