Instructions

Thaw shrimp overnight in the refrigerator.
At least 15-20 minutes before you’re starting to cook, put the shrimp in a colander placed in the sink.
Put brussels sprouts into a bowl and toss with desired amount of olive oil, salt, and fresh-ground black pepper, then spread the brussels sprouts out in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
After the brussels sprouts have cooked for 15 minutes, drain the shrimp well in a colander placed in the sink.
Remove baking sheet from the oven, push the brussels sprouts over to one side, and spread the drained shrimp out in a single layer.
Put back in the oven and roast until shrimp have turned pink and are barely firm, about 6-8 minutes.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven, give the shrimp and brussels sprouts a stir, and brush with the remaining marinade/glaze.
Serve the Shrimp and Brussels Sprouts meal immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Agave Nectar helps the glaze stick to the food.
Make sure not to overcook the shrimp for the best flavor.
You can use any sweetener you prefer in place of Monk Fruit sweetener.
Ensure that soy sauce is gluten-free if needed.
