In a small bowl, mix together garlic, ginger, honey, and soy sauce. Set aside.

Remove shrimp from Ziploc bag and discard the bag and marinade. Place 5-10 shrimp in the skillet at a time and cook for 1 minute on each side or until shrimp bodies are curled and browned. Before removing from pan, use tongs to rub shrimp into the caramelized sauce on the bottom of the skillet.

Serve immediately with remaining honey garlic sauce drizzled on top. Add some coriander and lemon to garnish. Best served on top of brown rice.
