Honey Walnut Shrimp is a modern classic, combining the ocean flavor of butterflied shrimp with the sweet nuttiness of roasted candied walnuts. Here, the butterflied shrimp are lightly coated in batter, then mixed with a delicate honey sauce and candied walnuts for an array of tastes and textures. It’s a clever recipe that makes them sweet, salty, and crunchy all at once. The honey-walnut flavors are a wonderful complement to both the flavor and texture of the butterflied shrimp.
