How to cook deliciously - Sweet Speared Shrimp
1. Stage
Soak your wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler or light a medium-hot fire in a charcoal or gas grill.
2. Stage
Whisk together the oil, pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to coat.
3. Stage
Thread 3 shrimp onto a skewer, separating the shrimp with 2 or 3 pieces of red onion. Repeat until all the shrimp are skewered. Leave about 3 inches on the bottom of each for a handhold.
4. Stage
Brush the shrimp with hoisin sauce (use about 1/2 cup). If broiling, place the skewers on a broiling pan and place the pan about 4 inches from the heat. If grilling, place them on the grill. Broil or grill for 3 minutes. Turn the shrimp over, brush with another 1/2 cup of the hoisin sauce, and broil or grill for 3 minutes more.
5. Stage
Place the skewers on a serving platter. Swirl some of the remaining 1/2 cup of the hoisin sauce over the shrimp. Place the rest of the sauce in a small bowl on the platter. Decorate the platter with the lime wedges and serve.
