Recipe Description
Grilled miso shrimp. Plump and juicy shrimp are marinated in white miso, sake, lime and ginger then skewered and grilled to delicious perfection.
This grilled miso shrimp was recently part of a complete meal along with edamame snap pea salad with ginger sesame dressing and toasted coconut rice (recipes coming soon). Miso not only makes a delicious soup, but it gives great umami to a marinade for chicken or fish. When I eat shrimp in this way, I usually serve with some kind of dipping sauce, so I made a dipping sauce with the reserved marinade that I didn’t use for the raw shrimp.
