Description
Succulent large shrimp bathed in teriyaki sauce and garnished with toasted sesame seeds. Served over rice, this makes a perfect dinner for two.
Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons Teriyaki Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Pure Honey
- ⅛ teaspoons Ground Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Cracked Black Pepper
- ¼ cups Sesame Seeds, Lightly Toasted
- 8 ounces, weight Large Shrimp, Deveined, Tails Removed
Preparation
Preheat a grill or griddle pan over medium heat and coat with cooking spray.
In a bowl, add teriyaki sauce, ginger, honey, and black pepper. Whisk well and set aside.
In a small frying pan over low heat, lightly toast sesame seeds. Transfer to a plate.
On a clean work surface, lay fresh shrimp on its side. Using a sharp knife, butterfly carefully by cutting through the center, halfway through, starting at the larger end 3/4 the way down near end. Open up the shrimp.
Place butterflied shrimp in the teriyaki marinade for a few minutes. Coat each shrimp in sesame seeds and place on grill/griddle pan. Cook on medium high 4 minutes each side.
Serve over rice. These are a favorite! Hope you’ll enjoy.
Note: Butterflying these shrimp eliminates the need to skewer them for grilling, cooking them much faster and tastier.
