Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and rice vinegar (if using).
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the seasoned shrimp in a single layer and cook 2–3 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Pour the honey garlic sauce over the shrimp and stir gently to coat.
Continue cooking 1–2 minutes more until the sauce thickens slightly and becomes glossy.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds.
Serve hot over rice, quinoa, or vegetables.
