Ingredients
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 ½ tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp flour
- 1 cloved garlic, minced
- 2 tsp minced fresh ginger
- 1 lb. large shrimp, peeled, tails left intact
- 8 green onions, white & light green parts cut into 1-inch pieces
- ¾ tsp canola oil
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp ground pepper
Instructions
- Place 8 wooden skewers in a large baking dish filled with hot water. Soak for at least 30 minutes.
- The Sauce:
- In a small saucepan, whisk together the rice vinegar, water, soy sauce, canola oil, brown sugar, flour, garlic and ginger.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook, whisking frequently, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
- The Shrimp:
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Place the shrimp and green onion pieces into a large bowl and toss with the canola oil, salt and pepper.
- Alternately thread the shrimp and green onion pieces onto the skewers.
- Place on the grill and cook until the shrimp is just cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Take care not to overcook the shrimp or it will become rubbery.
- Place the skewers on a serving platter and brush with most of the teriyaki sauce. Serve with extra sauce for drizzling or dipping.
