Ingredients

• 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 0.5 cup whiskey
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp lime juice (freshly squeezed)
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp honey
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp ground cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 tsp red chili flakes
• 8 pieces skewers (soaked in water if wooden)
• 4 pieces optional garnish: lime wedges

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine whiskey, olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, black pepper, and sea salt. Whisk until well blended.

Step 2

Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the shrimp to absorb the flavors.

Step 3

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 5

Thread the marinated shrimp onto the skewers, leaving a small amount of space between each piece to ensure even cooking.

Step 6

Place the shrimp skewers on the hot grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and slightly charred around the edges.

Step 7

Remove the skewers from the grill and sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro and red chili flakes for an extra kick of flavor.

Step 8

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the shrimp. Pair with grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
