This is such a quick easy summer recipe. It is spicy, light, and bright. It would make a great appetizer, or a quick weeknight meal. Make it a meal by serving with rice and veggies. The shrimp only needs to marinade for about 15 minutes and it is ready to toss on the grill. If you aren’t a fan of spice you can reduce or just skip the cayenne all together!
This is a very versatile recipe.. you could easily cook this inside without the skewers on the stove top or in the oven.
If baking in the oven: 425 for 6-8 minutes or until opaque
If using the stovetop: saute over medium high heat for 6 minutes or until opaque
