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 16/20 count. These are the ideal size for grilling and broiling, especially if you want to add a glaze to the shrimp. Anything smaller has the risk of being overcooked.
Ingredients
- 1 lb 16/20 ct. shrimp peeled and deveined
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp garlic minced
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp gochujang paste
- 1 tbsp honey
Garnish
- green onions chopped
- toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Mix all of the marinade ingredients together. Save half of the marinade for basting.
- Add in the shrimp. Marinate for 30 minutes.
- Skewer the shrimp. Place on a rack on a baking sheet lined in foil.
- Position the oven rack closest to the broiler. Broil the shrimp for 1 1/2 minutes a side.
- Brush the shrimp with the other half of the marinade. Broil for another minute on each side.
