Ingredients:
- Juice of 1 lime (~ 2 tbsp.)

- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 2 tbsp freshly grated ginger
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro leaves minced
- 5 tbsp olive oil
- 2 lbs of large shrimp (deveined)
Directions:
- In a small bowl squeeze the lime juice and then add the red pepper flakes, garlic, ginger, salt, black pepper and cilantro. Mix well with a fork, then drizzle with oil and stir constantly.
- Rinse shrimp in water pat dry and then place the shrimp in a medium sized bowl with the marinade. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Preheat the gas grill on high heat with the lid closed for 10 minutes. Thread the shrimp on a skewer and leave a little room between each of the shrimp so they do not steam. Grill for 2 minutes per side with the lid closed.
