DIRECTIONS
- Combine all marinade ingredients into a large bowl. Whisk until combined. Add the thawed/ fresh shrimp to the marinade and refrigerate for min 4 hours.
- Combine sauce ingredients into a mid-sized bowl and stir until equality combined. Place plastic wrap over the bowl and refrigerate until shrimp are ready to serve.
- Pre-heat grill to 400°F (204C), season the cooking grids thoroughly before grilling.
- Place shrimp on the grill shell side down – Keep the shell on the shrimp as it will keep the shrimp from drying out while grilling.
- Let grill for 2-3 minutes and then flip for another 2-3 minutes. Size of shrimp will dictate the cook time, so be sure to use a thermometer and achieve 120°F (49C) internal temperature before serving.
