Fireworks Ginger Miso Butter Grilled Shrimp

These make great appetizers for entertaining. You can go with jumbo prawns, medium or small. Due to living in a land-locked state, we go with what we can find in the freezer section...This time we found a size bigger than bay shrimp but smaller than the peel and eat kind. They were great! I'm sure if you're on the coast you'll have much more selection and for that, I'd say go big! More surface area to soak up the delicious marinade! These were awesome with pineapple salsa but you could also do a satay-style peanut sauce if you'd like instead. Bring on the sauce baby! Grill season never tasted so good! Sizzle. spread. boom.
