Michael Symon’s Miami Mojo Sauce | The Secret to Perfectly Grilled Shrimp

March 16

35 mins

Episode Description

The Chewed Up crew heads to Miami’s iconic W South Beach for an episode filled with sunshine, seafood, and plenty of laughs. Clinton Kelly, Carla Hall, and Michael Symon kick things off talking about travel, St. Patrick’s Day traditions, and Miami’s vibrant restaurant scene before diving into a fresh Florida-inspired recipe.

Michael Symon prepares grilled shrimp with citrus mojo sauce, a bright and garlicky dish inspired by the bold flavors of Miami and Cuban cooking. The shrimp are marinated in lime juice, lime zest, chili flakes, and olive oil before being grilled quickly to keep them perfectly tender.

Meanwhile, Michael blends a vibrant mojo sauce made from sour oranges, garlic, onion, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper. The citrus-forward sauce brings bold flavor and brightness to the grilled shrimp.

As the shrimp cook, the hosts chat about Miami food favorites like Cuban sandwiches and stone crab, debate beach vs. pool vacations, and share their favorite sandwiches and cheeses.

Once plated, the shrimp are served over the bright mojo sauce and shared with the audience for a taste test — creating a simple, vibrant seafood dish that captures the spirit of Miami cooking.
