Preparation Instructions

Note: If you are big into dipping shrimp in sauce, make extra sauce—increase the recipe by 50% and dip away!

Combine all ingredients except the shrimp in a microwave safe bowl, stir until fully incorporated. Cover with a plate and heat for 40 seconds or up to a minute, depending on your microwave. Stir well, taste and adjust spiciness to your liking.

Split the sauce into 2 small bowls. One for the grill and one for dipping (you may want to reheat the dipping sauce when serving).

Skewer the shrimp, brush with some of the sauce, then grill over medium-high heat, continuing to baste the shrimp with the sauce until cooked. Depending on the size of shrimp you use, you’ll cook for about 2-3 minutes per side. Watch for flare ups—the honey and molasses will excite your grill!

Serve with the remaining sauce. You can serve as an appetizer or over white rice for an entree.

Enjoy!
