SIMPLE SHRIMP MARINADE (GRILLED SHRIMP MARINADE)

Steps:

• Begin by preparing the marinade. Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice, Worcestershire, garlic, dijon mustard, honey, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes into a large bowl. Whisk the marinade together.
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil into the marinade while whisking until all the ingredients are combined.
• Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat the shrimp in the marinade.
• Place the shrimp into the refrigerator and let the shrimp sit for 30 minutes to 1 hour, but no longer. If the shrimp sits in the marinade for longer than 1 hour the shrimp may begin to cook in the lemon juice.
• Once your shrimp has marinated, cook in any way your heart desires. Here is an easy recipe for grilled shrimp you will love!
