Ingrediënten
- 450 grams Shrimps Peeled and Deveined
- 2 Garlic Cloves Minced
- 2 Tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
- 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 Teaspoons Tequila
- 3 Tablespoons Freshly Chopped Cilantro
- ¼ Teaspoon Ground Red Pepper
- ¼ Teaspoon Salt
Instructies
- In a bowl place the lime juice, olive oil, tequila, garlic, cilantro, pepper and salt and combine well together before then adding the shrimps.
- Toss the mixture about lightly to ensure that the shrimps are covered in the sauce then cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator for between 30 minutes and 3 hours to marinate.
- Turn on or light the barbecue about 30 minutes prior to when you want to start cooking the shrimps.
- You need to place the grill down low in the barbecue, as you will be cooking these on a high heat for a very short space of time.
- Whilst the barbecue is heating up take the shrimps out of the fridge and thread them on to either metal or wooden skewers.
- Put about 3 or 4 on each skewer and place to one side.
- If there is any marinade left over in the bowl discard this.
- Before you place the shrimps on to the barbecue grill lightly oil it first to prevent the shrimps from sticking to it.
- Now cook the shrimps for between 2 and 3 minutes on each side or until they have turned pink.
- Then serve.
