Sweet and Spicy Honey Grilled Shrimp

Sweet and Spicy Honey Grilled Shrimp
2-2 1/2 lbs raw, shelled, deveined shrimp.  Frozen is fine.
1 T minced garlic
1 T ginger
1/4 c hot chili garlic paste
1/2 c sweet chili garlic paste
1 c honey
1 c lime juice
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 c canola or veggie oil

Place all ingredients in a bag.  Marinate 24-48hrs.  Preheat your grill, then turn it down to low.  Cook shrimp while basting them with marinade.  I cooked them in a veggie grill basket.  It's more solid with slits not wire mesh stuff.  Serve with rice and remaining marinade for dipping or a sauce for rice etc.

Kyle and I both really enjoyed this meal.  The shrimp were SO good.  However....2 lbs was WAY too much for us...we should have had company over for that much since shrimp isn't near as good reheated.  We thought it was perfectly spicy for our family, with Luke and Leta.  However, if you like more spice, just add more of the hot chili garlic sauce stuff.
