Soy Ginger Edamame

I like to keep frozen shelled edamame on hand since it's a quick snack that's filled with protein and fiber. I eat edamame plain all the time, but every once in a while I like to spruce it up. Crispy Parmesan Edamame is a fun and easy snack, while this particular recipe makes a great side dish. The longer it sits in the marinade, the better the flavor--so if you have time to make this in advance, I suggest you do it! It's bursting with a combination of sweet, savory, tangy, spicy flavors. Enjoy!
