Directions

  1. Combine lime juice, tequila, oil, sliced chiles, salt and shrimp in medium bowl; toss to continue.

Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.

  1. Make Cocktail Sauce: Combine all ingredients in small bowl. Makes ¾ cup.

  2. Heat grill. Thread shrimp on 6 skewers. Grill over medium-hot heat 2 to 3 minutes per side, until opaque.

Serve with Cocktail Sauce.

Makes 4 servings.

Shrimp takes only minutes to grill, so have the rest of your menu ready--you’ll want to dig in as soon as the shrimp is done.

Prep time: 15 minutes plus marinating Cooking time: 6 minutes
