Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 ½ - 2 ½ pounds Shrimp (use more for a main dish, less for appetizers - it's up to you!)
  • 1 ½ cups cold water
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup soy sauce (I used low sodium)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3 tablespoons corn starch
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • cilantro roughly chopped
  • sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add water, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder, corn starch, and sesame oil to a medium sauce pan and stir to combine. Stir over medium heat until thickened, then remove from heat.
  2. Add 1/2 of the sauce and the shrimp to a sealable container and marinate for 15 minutes.
  3. Thread shrimp on skewers and discard the marinade sauce. Cook shrimp on a preheated grill over medium heat for 5-6 minutes on each side until shrimp is pink and cooked through.
  4. Serve shrimp immediately with remaining sauce and sprinkle with chopped cilantro and sesame seeds.

Notes

  • Pro tip: this is a great appetizer, but double the recipe and serve over rice for a main entree!
