Cilantro Lime Shrimp

As the temperature rises, that only means one thing — It’s grilling season! There’s nothing better than getting friends together and grilling. I love making kabobs, and you could say my love for these cilantro lime shrimp is pretty similar. 
Prep Time 40 minutes
Servings: 6 Kabobs
Course: Dinner, Main Course

Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 limes, juiced
  • ¼ tsp crushed red peppers
  • 3 tsp garlic, minced

  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
  • 1-2 tbsp avocado oil

Method
 

  1. Squeeze the lime juice into a bowl. Then whisk in red pepper, garlic, ginger, sea salt, black pepper, fresh cilantro, and avocado oil. Soak a handful of skewers.
