A delightful marinade that combines the tangy zest of citrus with the sweetness of honey, perfect for shrimp.
Combine the lime juice, rice vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, chives, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a blender.
Blending ensures a smooth and well-mixed marinade.
While blending, slowly add the olive oil to emulsify the marinade.
Adding the oil slowly helps create a creamy consistency.
Place the shrimp in a plastic zipper bag and pour the marinade over them.
Ensure all shrimp are evenly coated with the marinade.
Refrigerate the shrimp for 1 to 2 hours to allow the flavors to develop.
Marinating for at least an hour enhances the flavor.
Thread the shrimp onto skewers or place them in a grill wok.
If using skewers, leave a small gap between shrimp for even cooking.
Grill the shrimp over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they turn pink and are cooked through.
Avoid overcooking to keep the shrimp tender.
Serve the grilled shrimp immediately, garnished with additional chives if desired.
Pair with a fresh salad or rice for a complete meal.
