Instructions

  1. Whisk olive oil, red pepper flakes, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper in a medium-sized bowl.  Toss with shrimp and let marinate for at least 30 minutes in the fridge (marinate for 1 hour if shells are on).
  2. Heat grill, or grill pan on the stove, over medium-high heat. If skewering, thread the shrimp on a skewer, evenly spacing them. Place shrimp on grill over indirect heat, cook for 2 1/2 minutes on each side, until pink and translucent. Serve immediately with your sides of choice!

Notes

  • If using a grill pan, I recommend rubbing the pan with a big of oil before cooking.
