Tips:

  • Choose fresh shrimp: Look for shrimp that are firm and have a translucent appearance. Avoid shrimp that are discolored or have a slimy texture.
  • Properly devein the shrimp: Use a sharp knife to make a shallow incision along the back of the shrimp, then remove the dark vein.
  • Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and pepper adds depth of flavor and helps tenderize the shrimp.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: When grilling the shrimp, make sure to space them evenly on the grill grates to allow for proper cooking and even grill marks.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are opaque: The shrimp are cooked when they turn opaque and firm. Overcooking can make the shrimp tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Grilled shrimp are best served immediately after cooking, while they are still hot and juicy.
