The usual grilled shrimp gets a little more taste from this sweet and spicy recipe! Apply the sauce on shrimp that has been wrapped in bacon for an equally excellent result!

Reviews
I loved it! Really delicious. The first time I made this I used chili-garlic sauce; the second time I used Sriracha. The chili-garlic sauce version was better. More recently I have cut the chili-garlic measurement in half as it was a little too spicy for us. Love the sweet/hot combo though. Goes really well with a Thai peanut sauce. Thanks!
I loved it. Will definitely make it again
Delis and easy 5*
made as directed. a little too spicy for us, but good. next time I will cut back on the chili garlic sauce.
I would make this again, but the next time using much larger shrimp. I scaled down the ingredients to match the size of shrimp I was using. The smaller shrimp just cannot hold the marinade like the larger ones can. The flavor was good though, with just a bit of heat. I did add some sriracha to the marinade to make it even more spicey.
Easy, fast and taste great. I finished the shrimp on the serving plate with dried parsley and toasted sesame seeds. Awesome.
I did not make any changes. It was really good and so easy. I put on a grilling tray on the grill. If you want more spice do half garlic chili sc and half siracha. I would definitely make again.
LOVED IT!!! Added a bit of water to the sauce so it wasn’t so salty. Made this with Lo Mein noodles. Awesome!
I like this recipe! It is delicious!
I used a sweet chile sauce because that is what I had and it was delicious!
Easy and tasty. I cooked just as it was written.
OMG!!! Really easy, quick and delicious!!!
Very simple and tasty. I marinaded my shrimp for a couple of hours and the only thing I added was a bit of oil and Chinese five spice. I also made up another batch of this marinade and dunked some boneless, skinless chicken breasts. I think I liked it even more. Pic posted
Too spicy!
We loved this! Great flavor, super easy and quick to put together. Definitely a keeper!
Really annoying to see the negative “way too spicy” comments when the wrong ingredient is used! If you didn’t use chili-garlic sauce, then don’t rate it! Hint: chili-garlic still has heat, but it also has a sweetness to it–sriracha is pure chili heat.
Too Hot
Delicious
Used a bit of srichacha and tweaked it with a little honey to taste (my husband is diabetic so we have to watch the quantity), and sautéed the shrimp in a pan. This was the easiest, quickest recipe –no marinating needed — my family loved it! Thank you for the recipe!
Way too spicy and way too greasy.
Very easy recipe and delicious! Will make this again!!!
