Healthy living isn’t a diet, it’s a lifestyle

These teriyaki shrimps are easy to make. This recipe is part of my basic recipe series. Although it may be super easy to make. The main goal of this is having a good teriyaki sauce as a finisher and if you want to make your own kudos to you. I am allergic to soy so I buy coconut amino soy-free teriyaki sauce, however, if you can tolerate soy, choose your favorite teriyaki sauce. Another tip is making sure your shrimps are well marinated.

Key Ingredients

As mentioned the key ingredients to this easy teriyaki sauce recipe are the seasonings used to marinate the shrimps and the teriyaki sauce as the finisher. I do recommend grilling your shrimps and if you do not have a grill pan I suggest broiling 375 degrees for about 5 minutes or you can use an air fryer on 400 for 5 minutes.

Notes

If you do not have a grill pan you can use your oven broiler. Start by preheating the broiler on 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the marinated shrimps to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spray cooking oil or brush olive oil lightly. Place the baking sheet in the oven and let it broil for 5-10 minutes remove from heat and immediately add the teriyaki sauce. Then return to the oven for another 3-5 minutes. 

Keep in mind that shrimps cook very fast. The longer you cook them the tougher they become, so it is then overcooked.

To know when your shrimps are ready, they should be light pink and start to form a circle. Typically 3 minutes on each side is sufficient.
