- 1/4 cup honey
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Skewers (wooden or metal)
Instructions
- Mix honey, lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
- Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Let them sit for 15-30 minutes.

Notes
For best results, soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning. Do not marinate shrimp for more than 30 minutes as the lime can begin to cook them.
