Tips for Making Grilled Shrimp with Lime-Cilantro Marinade:
- Use fresh, large shrimp for the best results. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before marinating.
- Make sure to devein the shrimp before marinating them. This will help to remove any grit or sand from the shrimp.
- The marinade is what gives the shrimp its flavor, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use fresh lime juice, cilantro, garlic, and olive oil.
- Let the shrimp marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will allow the flavors to penetrate the shrimp.
- When grilling the shrimp, make sure the grill is hot before adding the shrimp. This will help to prevent the shrimp from sticking to the grill.
- Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Overcooking the shrimp will make them tough.
- Serve the shrimp immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, grilled vegetables, or a salad.
Conclusion:
Grilled shrimp with lime-cilantro marinade is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The shrimp are juicy and flavorful, and the marinade gives them a bright and refreshing taste. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
