Grilled Margarita Shrimp Kebabs are a zesty and flavorful dish perfect for summer grilling. These shrimp are marinated in a delicious blend of lime juice, tequila, and spices, then grilled to perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons tequila (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, tequila (if using), honey, garlic, chili powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Add the shrimp to the marinade, tossing to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  4. Thread the marinated shrimp onto the skewers, about 4-5 shrimp per skewer.
  5. Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are opaque and cooked through.
  6. Remove from the grill and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • For added flavor, consider adding sliced bell peppers or cherry tomatoes to the skewers along with the shrimp.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some diced jalapeños to the marinade.
