Tequila Lime Shrimp
These flavorful grilled tequila lime shrimp are sure to be a hit at any BBQ or summer gathering!
Ingredients
1 pound large shrimp (26-30/pound), thawed, peeled, tails on
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons silver tequila
Juice & zest of 1/2 lime
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon chili powder or more to taste
2 cloves garlic minced
2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
Salt & pepper to taste
Steps
-
Combine the marinade ingredients in a large Ziploc bag. Add the shrimp and toss gently to coat. Let sit for 30 minutes.
-
If using wooden skewers, it’s a good idea to soak them for 30 minutes to reduce burning/splintering.
-
Thread the shrimp onto your skewers.
-
Preheat BBQ/grill to high. Reduce heat to medium-high, and grill the shrimp for about 4 minutes/side, or until they’re cooked through, taking care not to overcook.
