  1. Loved this easy marinade! Added onions and peppers to the shrimp and it was really tasty. The lime really livened it up!!! Thanks for posting. Barb
     
  2. If you like spicy foods, you'll love this! Very, very good! I also put mushrooms,red pepper, and grape tomatoes with the shrimp on the skewers. Our Labor day picnic was a very tasty one.
     
  3. This was absolutely delicious. Not only did we use it on the shrimp, but we marinated and grilled a variety of vggies (onions, yellow & orange peppers, squash). Most tasty. A new favorite.
     
  4. We loved your shrimp!! The lime made it so fresh tasting and the pepper blend and cumin just made it POP! I do believe this is a new favorite! So, so very easy and literally takes minutes. I can't help but wonder what this would do to some nice Mahi Mahi steaks. Thanks for the great recipe :)
     
  5. Very tasty with a nice little kick. So far the best shrimp of the summer. Thank you.

  1. Brilliant! I used golden and red grape tomatoes, red and yellow capsicum, zucchini, mushrooms, and substituted cilantro for parsley. I also marinated the veggies while I soaked the bamboo skewers for 30 minutes. Very coarsely ground pepper is wonderful.
