Easy Grilled Shrimp! Summer grilling is getting started and that means plenty of grilled shrimp and other tasty items cooked over open flames! When it comes to shrimp I'm a sucker for serving a pile of the little guys, and many other seafood items, up with a side of cole slaw. But, sometimes you need a different take on basic cole slaw!
Here’s a nice version of a coleslaw with an Asian feel and the taste of Mango as well. Enjoy!
For the Shrimp! Grab a bunch of shrimp, toss them in a non-reative bowl with some orange juice, ginger powder, a dash of hot sauce and some seasoning of your choice. Cover, chill, prep your grill and start your cole slaw. Grill as you normally would.
