Ingredients
- 2 limes, juiced and zested
- 1-2 jalapeno or serrano chiles, seeds removed and roughly chopped
- 2 tsp fresh garlic, chopped
- 2 Tbsp (packed) fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 Tbsp (packed) fresh mint leaves
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
- 1-1/2 lb (24-30) shrimp, peeled and de-veined
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler.
- Add the lime zest and juice, chiles, garlic, cilantro, mint and olive oil to a food processor and blend to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour over the shrimp and let marinade for at least 10 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
- Place 4 or 5 shrimp on each wooden skewer and lay the skewers on to a non-stick sheet pan. Brush the shrimp with the remaining sauce. Broil for 4-5 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Serve immediately.
Notes
- If using wood skewers, be sure to soak them in water before cooking, just to be sure that they don’t catch on fire!
