Chipotles give a zippy flavor Honey giving it a sweetness making it a perfect finger licking food for entertaining. Tweeked from Weber. Serve as an appetizer or over rice for a main meal. I served this with Lime Cayenne mayonnaise Lime Cayenne Mayonnaise. It went great with it!

Ingredients

1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon minced canned chipotle chile in adobo
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 lb large shrimp, shelled and deveined
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro

Directions

1
In a large bowl, combine the honey, chile pepper, garlic and salt. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes or in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove from the marinade and discard any remaining marinade.

Seriously the BEST shrimp! You could even use the marinade on meats! Yum. There were only 3 of us and we ate them ALL!!! Went with the suggested Lime Cayenne Mayo to dip and it was nice and light and fresh...This will be a staple!

We have made these shrimp countless times now. Most often we make it when we're having company over that we want to impress without doing any work. No need to change the recipe...it turns out perfect every time. If there are leftovers we grind them up in the processor and mix them into cream cheese with a little extra crushed red pepper and garlic powder. So good with crackers.

Unbelievable!! These shrimp are the bomb!! DD and I ate, and ate! So,so good! I made the marinade, tasted and thought instantly, 5 STARS!! DD and I added a bit more Chipotle, and a bit of the adobo sauce after tasting it, just because she and I love it Hot! Then I squeezed in a little lime juice, just for a little Zip. Rita, this recipe is to die for!! Thank you, thank you for sharing it! Made with massive amounts of pleasure for Zaar World Tour!!
