Grilled Garlic Jalapeño Lime Black Tiger Shrimp
Grilled Garlic Jalapeño Lime Black Tiger Shrimp
I recently bought some giant shrimp from work. Like 4-6 in a pound giant shrimp. It was a nice 52° day on January 31st in Minneapolis and I said to myself, “Thanks climate change for letting me grill in the middle of winter when it’s normally -40°.” So I made one of my favorite marinades for seafood: garlic, jalapeño, and lime juice, and marinated these lobster tail-sized shrimp for 20 minutes. I threw them on the grill and they were done in 10 minutes. You can definitely make this recipe with any size shrimp, but they will take less amount of time.
