Instructions

Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp lemon zest, 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Whisk to create the citrus glaze.
Step 2: Add 1 lb peeled and deveined large shrimp to the glaze and toss to coat evenly. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes.

Step 5: Remove from grill and let rest for 2 minutes before serving with extra citrus glaze drizzled on top.
