Sesame Garlic Shrimp

Ingredients

4 tablespoons sesame seeds

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons sesame oil

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

12 large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 (8-inch) bamboo skewers

Instructions

1. In a small skillet over medium heat toast the sesame seeds about 5 minutes stirring often.
2. In a shallow dish combine 2 tablespoons of the sesame seeds with the garlic, oil, vinegar, and soy sauce. Thread 4 shrimp onto each skewer, piercing each at the head and tail, and place in the marinade, coat well and allow them to marinate 10 minutes.
3. On a separate shallow dish sprinkle the remaining sesame seeds and coat the shrimp with them.
4. Lightly grease a large skillet and place over medium-high heat. Sear the skewered shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until opaque. Alternately you can grill them or broil them for the same amount of time.
5. If using a skillet pour the remaining marinade over the shrimp and cook 3-4 minutes. If grilling or broiling: simmer the marinade 3-4 minutes in a small saucepan.
6. Plate and pour the sauce over the shrimp or serve on the side as a dipping sauce. Serve warm or at room temperature.
