Follow these steps to make sweet and savory honey garlic grilled shrimp quickly and easily.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, ginger, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to create the glaze.
  3. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss gently to coat them completely in the glaze. Marinate for 15 to 30 minutes; do not marinate longer than 30 minutes as the soy sauce can toughen the shrimp.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400 degrees Fahrenheit). Lightly oil the grates.
  5. Thread the marinated shrimp onto the skewers, leaving a small space between each shrimp.
  6. Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  7. During the last minute of cooking, brush any remaining glaze over the shrimp.
  8. Remove the shrimp from the grill immediately when they turn pink and opaque. Do not overcook.
  9. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For best results, use large or jumbo shrimp for grilling.
  • If you prefer not to use skewers, you can place the shrimp directly on a grill basket or a piece of foil.
  • Serve this shrimp over rice or with a side of grilled vegetables.
