Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Tamari soy sauce or regular soy
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Korean Gochujang
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- Red pepper flakes to taste optional
- 2 pounds (907g) peeled and cleaned shrimp, tails still on
Instructions
- Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes before using.
- Mix together olive oil, soy sauce, honey, Korean Gochujang, lemon juice, garlic and red pepper flakes if using, in a mixing bowl.
- Add the shrimp to the bowl and mix until coated.
- You can cook straight away or leave to marinate the shrimp. If marinating, marinate for 30 minutes up to 2 hours ahead. Thread about 5 shrimp to each skewer.
- Preheat the grill (or charcoal grill), broiler or grill pan to medium heat, oil the grates and grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side or until opaque.
- Transfer skewers to a plate and serve.
Make In the Air Fryer
- Create the skewers like you did in the instructions above using steps 1-4.
- Preheat Air Fryer to 350 degrees F / 180 degrees C. Place shrimp in the Air Fryer, making sure the skewers don’t touch.
- Cook for 5-8 minutes, turning skewers halfway through the cook time. Since air fryer temperatures can vary, start with less time and then add more as needed.

Notes
- The longer you marinate these Korean shrimp skewers, the more flavor they’ll have.
- It’s better to use the larger shrimp so they don’t fall between the grates while cooking and so they cook evenly since shrimp cook so quickly.
- I recommend oiling the grill grates before turning on the grill if you can so you don’t get burned.
- Metal skewers are great for grilling because they transmit heat well.
- Using flat skewers is ideal for shrimp so they don’t twirl around the round skewer.
- No time to soak the shrimp before marinating? No problem. Use grill plates to help keep the shrimp plump and juicy.
