  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss shrimp with vegetable oil, salt, and pepper. Dip one side of each shrimp in toasted sesame seeds. Skewer with a toothpick. When oven is heated, place skewered shrimp (sesame seeds on top) on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake 5 to 7 minutes, until shrimp are firm to the touch.
  • For the dipping sauce, put remaining ingredients into a bowl and mix until blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with the warm shrimp.
