Tips
- You can prepare this dish by threading the shrimp onto skewers, pressing each shrimp together so they touch each other and cook better.
- You can also put the shrimp in a large zip-top bag and pour in the marinade. Seal the bag and put it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour. This way you can grill them.
- To prepare this tasty dish we used medium sized shrimp, they were about 10cm long (peeled, but including the tail) and about 1cm thick.
