How to Make Ginger Soy Lime Marinated Shrimp
- Combine 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar in a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- Add 2 tablespoons chopped green onion and 1 tablespoon sesame oil to the blender. Blend until well combined.
- Season the marinade generously with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- In a large bowl, gently toss 1 pound of shrimp (peeled and deveined) with the marinade. Marinate at room temperature for at least 20 minutes, or up to 30 minutes for maximum flavor.
- Preheat grill to high heat. Clean and oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Remove shrimp from the marinade, reserving the extra marinade for basting (optional).
- Grill shrimp for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Baste with reserved marinade during the last minute of grilling for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with extra green onions and lime wedges, if desired. Serve on brown paper bags for a fun presentation!
