Prep Time: 25 minutes (plus 30 minutes to soak skewers) Cook Time: 5 minutes Serves: 4

 

1/3 cup honey

1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce

1 tsp. crushed red pepper

2 lb. medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

8-10 wood skewers

Soak wooden skewers for 30 minutes (if using metal skewers, you can skip this step). In a small bowl, mix honey, soy sauce, garlic and red pepper. Put half of the marinade in a large plastic baggie and set other half of marinade aside.

Place shrimp in baggie with half of marinade; refrigerate for 15 minutes. Preheat grill to medium-high heat while shrimp is marinating. After skewers have soaked, thread 5-6 shrimp on each.

Grill skewers over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Flip, brush remaining marinade on the shrimp and cook for 1-2 minutes.
