Instructions

Whisk marinade ingredients together in small jar with lid.
Pour one-half of marinade mixture into large non-reactive bowl and reserve the other half in the jar for serving.
Add shrimp to bowl and toss to coat. Marinate at least 15 minutes but not longer than 30 minutes.
Thread the shrimp onto skewers, 5-6 per skewer.
Preheat grill over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium. Lightly oil grill grate. Cook shrimp until no longer translucent, 3-4 minutes per side. Watch carefully as shrimp cook very quickly and will become rubbery if overcooked.
Remove from grill onto a serving platter. Drizzle lightly with reserved marinade.
Serve immediately garnished with fresh parsley sprigs and lime slices or as desired above. Enjoy!
