First get a skillet hot with just enough olive oil to coat the bottom. Add the butter and squeeze in the lemon juice. As soon as the butter has melted and stopped foaming lay out the shrimp so that they all are laying flat on their sides.
When the first side is seared turn them over and douse them with the honey getting each shrimp coated with the honey. Let the other side of the shrimp get cooked and toss the shrimp all together.
