Szechuan Spicy Grilled Shrimp

Three skewers of grilled shrimp served on a white plate.

The zesty blend of Chipotle Olive Oil and Peach Balsamic Vinegar creates a sweet and smoky marinade that takes grilled shrimp to the next level. This combination infuses the shrimp with a perfect balance of heat and fruity tang, delivering a mouthwatering flavor in every bite

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 C. The Olive Tap's Chipotle Olive Oil
  • 2 T. The Olive Tap's Roasted Sesame Oil
  • 1/4 C. chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 T. minced garlic
  • 1 T. ketchup
  • 1 T. soy sauce
  • 2 T. Asian chili paste
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • 1/4 t. black pepper
  • 3 T. The Olive Tap's Peach White Balsamic Vinegar
  • 2 lbs. large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 12 wooden skewers, soaked in water

Directions:

Whisk together the Chipotle Olive Oil, Sesame Oil, parsley, minced garlic, ketchup, chili sauce, salt, pepper, and Peach Balsamic Vinegar in a mixing bowl. Set aside about 1/3 of this marinade to use while grilling. Place the shrimp in a large, resealable plastic bag. Pour in the remaining marinade and seal the bag. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Thread shrimp onto skewers, piercing once near the tail and once near the head. Discard marinade. Lightly oil grill grate. Cook shrimp for 2 minutes per side until opaque, basting frequently with reserved marinade.
