    The shrimp is mildly spicy. Just enough for your lips to ask, ??? I tossed it with piri piri for just a touch of heat (use more or less depending on your preferences), garlic (of course) and lots of fresh lemon and lime zest. I then grilled it up to give the shrimp some nice char marks and another layer of flavor.

    Ingredients

    • 2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined
    • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
    • 2 teaspoons piri piri spice
    • 1 large garlic clove
    • 1 teaspoon honey
    • zest of 1 lemon and 1 lime
    • salt and pepper

    Directions

    1. 1. In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, piri piri, garlic, honey, lemon zest, lime zest, and a pinch each of salt and pepper
    2. 2. Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan to high.
    3. 3.Thread the 4-5 shrimp on skewers and grill each skewer for 2 minutes per side or until the shrimp is cooked through
    4. 4. Remove from grill and add additional salt and pepper to taste.
    5. Add to salad or pasta and enjoy!
