How to Make Grilled Lime Shrimp

Step 1

In a blender, combine shallots, garlic, lime juice, cumin and cilantro and blend until smooth. Add olive oil and pepper and blend until smooth. In a large bowl, combine shrimp and marinade, tossing to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, turning once.
Step 2

Preheat grill to high. Remove shrimp from marinade and thread onto skewers (if using bamboo skewers, soak them first). Grill for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side, with the cover closed. Remove from skewers and serve on a bed of lettuce garnished with lime wedges.
