Instructions

Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp fresh lime juice, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp grated fresh ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tsp sesame oil until fully combined to create the citrus glaze.
Step 2: Toss 1 lb peeled and deveined Gulf shrimp with 1 tbsp olive oil and half of the glaze mixture, coating evenly. Let marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Step 3: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 450°F). Place shrimp on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until opaque and slightly charred.
Step 4: During the last minute of grilling, brush shrimp generously with remaining glaze, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
Step 5: Remove shrimp from grill and garnish with 2 tbsp chopped scallions and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes for a subtle heat kick. Serve immediately.
