HOW TO COOK CHILI LIME SHRIMP
- Coldwater should be used to soak the bamboo skewers. Pat the shrimp dry after rinsing in cold water using paper towels. Set aside for later.
- Place the ingredients needed for the marinade in a large bowl and mix them.
- Carefully coat the shrimp evenly in the marinade before serving. Allow it to marinate for 30 minutes.
- Heat up a grill to medium-high and cook the shrimp until they are pink and slightly charred all over. Serve right away.
NOTE:
Alternatively, you can bake the shrimp in the oven at 400F for 10 minutes. To brown the shrimp on the outside, place them under the broiler for one minute after being baked.
