Grilled Cilantro Lime Shrimp Skewers
Grilled Cilantro Lime Shrimp Skewers are my latest grilling recipe creation, but can also be cooked on your Blackstone flat top griddle 🙂
This easy and healthy recipe is perfect for a light summery meal.
You could add them to a salad or as shrimp tacos.
We just ate them as is with the cilantro lime dipping sauce.
How to Make Grilled Cilantro Lime Shrimp Skewers
We will make a gorgeous, bright cilantro lime sauce that will be used in two ways.
Some for the shrimp marinade and some for the dipping sauce.
Put a half cup olive oil, a quarter cup lime juice, and a tablespoon each dijon mustard and honey in a food processor or blender.
Then add chopped, fresh cilantro, kosher salt, and pepper.
And just blend until smooth and set aside.
Peel and devein a pound of jumbo shrimp and put them in a bowl.
Add a few spoonfuls of the cilantro lime sauce and a tablespoon Old Bay seasoning.
Stir until the shrimp are coated and put them on four kabob skewers.
If you have any extra marinade in the bowl, brush it over the shrimp.
Then preheat the grill or your Blackstone griddle to medium for a few minutes.
And add the skewers to the grill, or to the griddle with a little cooking oil.
Shrimp cook pretty fast so keep an eye on them.
Mine cooked about 5 minutes total and I flipped them halfway through.
Gotta love those char marks!
Grilled Cilantro Lime Shrimp Kabobs were such a light and healthy meal that we all loved!
So pretty!
