The recipe serves four people.
There are some ingredients you will need in addition to the marinade (the ingredients are shown below).
These are: 16 to 20 extra-large shrimp and 4 skewers.
It will be much easier to marinate the shrimp if they are thawed, deveined, rinsed, and patted dry before they are placed into the marinade.
In a small jar with a lid, or even in a bowl with a lid, whisk together the ingredients for the marinade, which include:
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice (2 limes)
1 tablespoon lime zest
1 teaspoon chipotle chili pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon honey
Salt and black pepper, as per your own preference
Before you grill the shrimp, it is recommended that you reserve about half of the marinade to be used as a sauce to accompany the cooked shrimp.
In order to marinate the shrimp properly, the other half of the mixture can be transferred to another container, or even a Ziploc baggie, that can be kept in the fridge.
