Hello friends! I cannot believe that July is almost over! Where has the year gone? That means grilling season is almost over. Unless you’re like my family who will literally grill in rain. We don’t play when it comes to BBQ’s.

Our last barbeque my husband wanted to try something different. He’s kind of been on a health kick lately which is amazing!! So of course, I would grill him whatever he wanted. Which happened to be shrimp. We are not seafood eaters! I don’t think anyone in my family has ever cooked fish or shrimp, so I decided to give it a try and this recipe did not disappoint!!

Did you know honey is rich in various nutrients, including vitamins (such as B-complex vitamins), minerals (such as calcium, iron, magnesium, and potassium), and antioxidants. While it should be consumed in moderation due to its high sugar content, it does offer some nutritional value.

So, I can say I don’t completely feel guilty about eating this recipe. If you would rather make this sugar free, you can use a sugar free honey alternative.

Here is what you are going to need:

– 2lbs Shrimp, peeled and deveined

– 4 Cloves of garlic, minced

– Juice of half a lemon

-1/4 Cup roughly chopped cilantro

– 1 Jalapeno pepper

– 1/4 Cup low sodium soy sauce

– 2 Tbsp of gochujang

– 3 Tablespoons of honey or honey alternative

Directions:

1. In a large Ziplock bag combine the soy sauce, honey, garlic, gochujang, cilantro, jalapeno and lemon juice. Add in the shrimp and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2. Preheat your outdoor grill to high

3. I placed about 3 large shrimp on a wooden skewer for easier cooking.

4. Grill for about 4 minutes each side and enjoy!

I know my husband did, so we now have another recipe to add to our rotation.
