Grilled Shrimp Satay
This dish will be a hit every time. Watcharee Limanon created this recipe for Grilled Shrimp Satay. She is a master of creating recipes that are delicious and easy to make at home. Grilled Shrimp Satay is one of the most ordered dishes from Thai restaurants for take-out. Why not make a fresher version at home with ingredients from your pantry? All you need to pick up at your local seafood shop or grocery store is 20-30 large fresh shrimp. Not only is this dish outrageously good, it is far more economical to make at home than to order from your local Thai restaurant. Enjoy!
