• 0.33 Cup olive oil
• 0.25 Cup sesame oil
• 0.25 Cup fresh parsley, minced
• 2 Tablespoons hot sauce
• 2 Tablespoons garlic, minced
• 1 Tablespoon ketchup
• 1 Tablespoon Asian chile paste

2. Place the shrimp in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour in the remaining marinade, seal the bag, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
3. Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat. Thread the shrimp onto skewers, piercing each shrimp near the tail and head. Discard the used marinade.
