Chili Lime Garlic Grilled Shrimp Marinade Recipes

CHILI LIME GARLIC GRILLED SHRIMP MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk the garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, chili powder, lime juice, red pepper flakes and olive oil together in a large mixing bowl.
• Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat.
• Place in the refrigerator and marinate for 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
• Grill the shrimp for 3 minutes per side.
• Heat a grill over medium-high heat, approximately 450°F.
• Use tongs to remove the shrimp from the marinade and place the shrimp directly on the grill.
• Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp starts to turn opaque white with some pink highlights.
• Place a grill pan, or cast iron skillet, on the stove top over medium high heat.
• When the pan or skillet is hot, use tongs to remove the shrimp from the marinade and place it in the skillet, making sure not to crowd the skillet.
• Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side, adding or removing 1-2 minutes if the shrimp are smaller or larger in size.

GRILLED THAI CHILE GARLIC SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high heat.
• Put the shrimp into a glass bowl. Whisk the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and pour 1/2 to 2/3 if it over the shrimp. (Reserve the remaining marinade to brush on the shrimp during grilling.) Allow the shrimp to marinate for only 8 to 10 minutes or the lime juice will begin to "cook" the shrimp. Grill the shrimp, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side while brushing with the reserved marinade. I use a silicone brush. Remove the shrimp from the grill to a platter and serve garnished with lime wedges.

CHILE LIME SHRIMP MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine the shrimp with the rest of the ingredients. Grill until just opaque. Serve immediately.

GRILLED GARLIC-LIME SHRIMP RECIPE

Steps:

• To make the marinade, place jalapeño, lime juice, garlic, olive oil, chili powder, salt, and lime zest in jar of a blender. Puree until garlic and jalapeño are completely chopped.
• Place shrimp in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour in marinade and toss to combine. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes while preparing the grill.
• Light one chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and spread the coals evenly over entire surface of coal grate. Alternatively, set all the burners of a gas grill to high heat. Set cooking grate in place, cover grill and allow to preheat for 5 minutes. Clean and oil the grilling grate. Grill shrimp over high heat until just cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove to a platter and serve immediately.

GRILLED TEQUILA-LIME SHRIMP

Steps:

• Whisk together the lime juice, tequila, olive oil, garlic salt, cumin, and black pepper in a bowl until well blended. Pour into a large resealable plastic bag; add the shrimp, seal bag and turn to coat evenly. Refrigerate 1 to 4 hours before grilling.
• Soak skewers at least 30 minutes in water to prevent burning.
• Preheat outdoor grill for medium-high heat. Lightly oil grill grate, and place about 4 inches from heat source.
• Drain and discard marinade from shrimp. Thread shrimp onto prepared skewers, 5 to 6 per skewer.
• Cook, uncovered, on preheated grill until shrimp turn pink, turning once, for 5 to 7 minutes. Serve with lime wedges for garnish.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH CHILE AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for high heat. (If you don't have a grill, you can cook the shrimp in a cast-iron skillet over high heat, with the vent on, following the same timing.) Using a Microplane or the small holes of a box grater, grate the garlic and chile into a medium bowl. Stir in the mayonnaise, salt and baking soda. Add the shrimp and stir to combine. Refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Clean the grates with a grill brush (no need to grease the grates), then grill the shrimp until well browned, 2 to 4 minutes. (If using a gas grill, close the lid to maintain temperature.) Flip and cook until opaque throughout, 1 to 2 minutes. Eat right away.

GRILLED CHILE-LIME SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high.
• In medium bowl, combine all ingredients except shrimp and stir well.
• Peel shrimp except for tail, and devein. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels.
• Place shrimp in large resealable bag. Add marinade. Through bag, rub marinade into shrimp. Place in refrigerator for 20 minutes. Halfway through, turn bag and give shrimp another marinade massage. (Do not marinate longer than 20 minutes, or the acidic lime juice will cook the shrimp).
• Place shrimp on cutting board and nestle them together in groups of six. Using 2 bamboo skewers for each group, skewer the shrimp together (this is for nice presentation, keeps shrimp from falling into the grill and makes them easier to turn). NOTE: Soak bamboo skewers in water for 15 minutes prior to use, to keep them from burning.
• Grill shrimp on an oiled grill rack 2 minutes per side, or until opaque.
• (Serve with Toasted Couscous with Grilled Mango and Zucchini).
