Gochujang Marinated Grilled Shrimp

Gochujang Marinated Grilled Shrimp
If you like spicy, this recipe is for you. Gochujang paste is great as a marinade for shrimp, as well as chicken, pork, and squid. When selecting shrimp, I chose to use 8-12 count. These are the ideal size for grilling and broiling, especially if you want to add a glaze to the shrimp.
