1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, sesame oil, parsley, hot sauce, minced garlic, ketchup, chile sauce, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Reserve about 1/3 of the marinade for basting during grilling.
2

Put the shrimp into a large resealable plastic bag. Pour in the remaining marinade and seal the bag. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
3

Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat. Thread the shrimp onto skewers, piercing once near the tail and once near the head. Discard the marinade.
4

Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill the shrimp for 2 minutes per side until opaque, basting often with the reserved marinade.
