Spicy Citrus Grilled Shrimp

Total Time: 1 hr 20 mins Preparation Time: 1 hr Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled (i keep the tails on)
  • 1/2 cup orange juice (from 1-2 oranges, if one orange is enough cut up the other orange to add on the skewers, just depend)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 orange, zest of
  • 1 lemon, zest of
  • 2 teaspoons chipotle chiles in adobo, fine chopped (use more is you like more spice)

Recipe

  • 1 now shrimp will take only about 30-45 minutes worth of marinade.
  • 2 scallops -- 20-30 tops.
  • 3 fish can go a couple of hours, especially cod or halibut a thick cut fish steak.
  • 4 marinade -- mix the orange juice, lemon, zest of both the orange and lemon and chipoltes. just mix all in a baggie and let the seafood marinade.
  • 5 shrimp -- now i like to skewer mine (bamboo skewers soaked in water first if using a charcoal grill) and then just grill. they take hardly any time. just a couple of minutes per side is all. just until they turn pink. i baste them as they grill once per side with the marinade. you can do this inside on a grill pan or outside on the grill.
  • 6 serve -- with creamy cheesy polenta and grilled vegetables.
