Instructions
Creating Hawaiian Honey Shrimp Skewers is a breeze if you follow these easy steps:
1. Soak Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
2. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper.
3. Marinate Shrimp: In a separate bowl, place the cleaned shrimp and pour the marinade over them. Let them marinate for about 10-15 minutes.
4. Skewer Shrimp: Thread the marinated shrimp onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each one for even cooking.
5. Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it over medium heat on your stovetop.
6. Grill Skewers: Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.
7. Baste with Marinade: During the last minute of grilling, you can brush the shrimp with leftover marinade for added flavor.
8. Rest and Garnish: Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
These step-by-step instructions ensure that your Hawaiian Honey Shrimp Skewers turn out delicious and succulent every time.
