Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Shishito Peppers with Sesame Soy Glaze.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a large mixing bowl and whisk together some fragrant sesame oil, savory soy sauce, finely grated ginger, and freshly grated garlic until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 2
Next, add in the rinsed shishito peppers, giving them a good toss in the marinade to ensure they’re all coated in that delicious mixture.
Step 3
Let those peppers soak up the flavors for about 15 to 20 minutes, tossing them occasionally to keep the marinade evenly distributed.
Step 4
While the peppers are marinating, fire up your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and place a grill pan on the grates to warm up.
Step 5
Once the marinating time is up, take the peppers out of the bowl, allowing any excess marinade to drip back in.
Step 6
Carefully arrange the peppers on the hot grill pan.
Step 7
Grill them for about 5 to 7 minutes, tossing them every 1 to 2 minutes to achieve that perfect char and blistering.
Step 8
When they’re beautifully charred, return the peppers to the bowl with the leftover marinade and give them a gentle toss to coat.
Step 9
Finally, sprinkle with a pinch of salt to taste and serve them up immediately.
