Tequila Lime Shrimp<\/h2>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n

2 lbs. raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, defrosted, if frozen<\/p>\n

Juice of 3 limes, reserve 3-4 juiced halves for cooking<\/p>\n

2 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil, plus more for saut\u00e9ing<\/p>\n

1\/4 cup Tequila<\/p>\n

2 cloves garlic, chopped<\/p>\n

1 Tbsp. soy sauce (substitute low sodium, if desired)<\/p>\n

2 Tbsp. honey<\/p>\n

1 tsp. red pepper flakes<\/p>\n

1 tsp. ground cumin<\/p>\n

3-4 sprigs fresh cilantro, leaves only, chopped<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients and stir until combined.\u00a0 \u00a0Cover and chill for approximately 15 minutes.\u00a0 Be sure not to allow mixture to marinate for longer than this time for the acid from the lime will cook the shrimp and the final product will be tough and rubbery.<\/p>\n

In a large skillet pan, over medium heat, add a bit of the marinade and bring to a simmer.\u00a0 Add shrimp and reserved lime halves and saut\u00e9 until pink.<\/p>\n

Serve warm with lime wedges.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
