Ingredients:

Serving

24 medium uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined (about 1 lb)
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp fresh ground black pepper
4 tbsp white sesame seeds, toasted
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1/4 tsp powdered cayenne pepper
1 tsp light sesame oil
2 scallions, cleaned and chopped
2 tbsp chopped cilantro
24 small metal skewers (if using toothpicks, soak them in water for 30 minutes before using so that they don'tsp burn in the o) or 24 small wooden toothpicks (if using toothpicks, soak them in water for 30 minutes before using so that they don'tsp burn in the o)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Toss the shrimp with the vegetable oil, salt, and pepper. Dip one side of each shrimp in the toasted sesame seeds. Skewer with a toothpick. I actually threaded several on a metal skewer and dipped one side of that group of shrimp in the toasted sesame seeds at the same time. Much easier and you don't lose seeds while threading since you're doing that part last.
When the oven is heated, place the skewered shrimp (sesame seeds on top) on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake 6 to 10 minutes (depending on your oven), until the shrimp are firm to the touch.
For the dipping sauce, put the remaining ingredients into bowl and mix until blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with the warm shrimp.
