Honey’n Lime Grilled Shrimp Recipe

Honey’n Lime Grilled Shrimp Recipe

This recipe is so easy, you'll wonder why you didn't have this before!  The combination of lime, cilantro and honey will make your taste buds sing.  A perfect meal or appetizer, or for whenever you feel the need to fire up the grill.  Serve with a salad and fruit...easy peasy dinner!

Ingredients

PRINT RECIPE

  • 1 Tablespoon (Tbsp.) or more to taste Cherchies Chardonnay Lime & Cilantro Seasoning

  • 1/2 cup honey

  • 1 lb. shrimp, cleaned and deveined (Frozen cooked shrimp, defrosted would work fine too)

  • 1/2 lime, plus the zest

  • Microplane or zester (Don't have one? Don't fret. A vegetable peeler and knife will do the trick) * See our cooking tip!

  • Wooden skewers (soaked in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning)

Preparation

In a small bowl, combine honey, lime zest, lime juice, and Cherchies Chardonnay Lime & Cilantro Seasoning.  Set aside.

Spray grill lightly with cooking spray.  Turn on grill to high, then down to low when ready to cook. Meanwhile, skewer shrimp onto wooden skewers.  (I find it is easier to grill shrimp this way).  Brush honey-lime mixture onto shrimp.  Put shrimp onto grill, and cook for only a few minutes on each side, until shrimp turn pink (If using fresh shrimp).  For frozen cooked shrimp, cook for a few minutes on each side. Serve on a pretty platter with lettuce, and you have an easy appetizer, lunch, or dinner.

A perfect luncheon treat, hors d'oeuvre, or salad.

Ingredients

PRINT RECIPE

Preparation

Cook pasta shells per package directions.  Remove pasta shells individually to avoid tearing.  Immerse shells in cold water until completely cooled, drain well, and pat dry.  

In a medium bowl, combine sour cream with Cherchies Champagne Mustard.

Add the Pretty Peppers, capers, celery, onions, chopped hard boiled eggs, salt and pepper, and Cherchies Pepper 'n Lime Seasoning.  Stir until completely blended.

Fill each shell with egg mixture.   Arrange 1 or 2 lettuce leaves on individual plates.  Set 3 or 4 shells (or more if you're hungry...I'd opt for more, but that's just me) on each plate.   Enjoy!
