Shiso Shrimpy and Grilled!
Adventures in the kitchen can only be accomplished if you spread your wings and buy stuff that is “unfamiliar”. I recently stopped in at my local Asian Market and I happened upon a lot of interesting produce…one thing namely were some Shiso Leaves. I wasn’t sure what to do with them, but I threw them in my basket. As usual, I went home and Googled what the heck I had just purchased! It seems like these leaves are often used in soups; however, after reading the description of the flavor, I had to try this in a pesto.
Ingredients
Directions
- In a food processor or blender, add shiso leaves, parsley, pistachios, salt, garlic, coconut aminos, sesame oil, lime juice, and olive oil.
- Using half of this pesto mixture, brush on the shrimp. Refrigerate for one hour.
- Skewer 4 shrimp per stick.
- Grill/cook for 4-5 minutes per side. Brush the additional pesto per side while grilling.
- Garnish with additional parsley, optional.
- Enjoy!
