These grilled shrimp get just the right amount of spicy flavor and a healthy dose of umami from gochujang, a fermented chili paste that is a key ingredient in the Korean kitchen. It's often sold in plastic tubs in Asian grocery stores or in red squeeze bottles in the Asian aisle of many supermarkets. Serve the shrimp with steamed rice and kimchi, use as a filling for lettuce wraps, or add them to a salad along with a sesame-soy vinaigrette.
Don't overmarinate the shrimp. If left for longer than 1 hour in the marinade, the shrimp may become too salty.
