Ingredients

1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons sriracha
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
3 cloves garlic, grated
1 lime, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
20 shrimp (16-20 count), peeled and deveined
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
12 ounces baby spinach
2 cloves garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and a large skillet over medium heat.
For the shrimp: In a small bowl, mix together the honey, sriracha, crushed red pepper, garlic, lime zest and juice and 1 tablespoon of the parsley. Set the glaze aside.
Thread the shrimp onto 4 metal skewers, 5 shrimp per skewer. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Place on the grill pan and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, brush the top with the glaze and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Flip the glazed side down, brush the top with the glaze and cook for an additional minute. Flip, glaze and cook until the shrimp are cooked through, up to an additional minute per side. Remove from the grill and drizzle with any remaining glaze.
For the spinach: Meanwhile, heat the oil in the skillet and add the spinach and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
Make a bed with the spinach on a serving platter. Top with the shrimp skewers and garnish with the remaining parsley.
