Honey Pecan Shrimp

Crispy shrimp coated in a sticky honey-mayo glaze with toasted pecans for crunch. Uses Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise; replaces walnuts with pecans. Cornstarch replaced by rice flour for lighter coating. Sugar swapped with maple syrup adding deeper sweetness. Slightly longer simmer on nuts; stir-fry shrimp quicker to keep moist but crispy. Balanced textures and sweet-savory contrast. Practical tips on oil heat, frying batches, and sauce emulsification included.
