Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 cup cilantro chopped, leaves
  • lime zest
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 pounds Shrimp 16/21 count, peeled and deveined, jumbo

Instructions

  1. Whisk the marinade ingredients in a glass measuring cup or bowl. Put the shrimp in a bowl or freezer bag and pour the marinade over them.
  2. Stir to coat all of the shrimp in the marinade or massage it in if using a freezer bag. Marinate for 15-30 minutes.
  3. Thread the shrimp onto metal or wooden skewers. If using wooden skewers make sure to soak them in water for at least  30 minutes. Preheat your grill to 400° F. then clean and oil the grates. 
  4. Place the shrimp skewers onto the grill grates and grill for 2-3 minutes. Flip them over and grill another 2 minutes or until they're pink, opaque, and have a loose C shape.

Notes

  • Optional step - After removing the shrimp from the marinade, pour the marinade into a small saucepan or skillet and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for a couple minutes. Stir the entire time. Brush the glaze onto the grilled shrimp skewers.
