Ingredients

  • Lime wedges for serving (optional)

Directions

  1. Prepare outdoor grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat.
  2. In blender, purée 1 jalapeño, garlic, tequila, cilantro, oil, honey, lime juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 minute. Makes about 3/4 cup.
  3. Place shrimp and remaining 3 jalapeños in large zip-top plastic bag; pour half the tequila mixture over shrimp. Seal bag, pressing out excess air; gently massage and let stand 20 minutes. Soak skewers in water 20 minutes.
  4. Remove shrimp and jalapeños from marinade; discard marinade. Alternately thread shrimp and jalapeños onto skewers. Place skewers on hot grill rack; cook, uncovered, 6 minutes or until internal temperature of shrimp reaches 145°, basting occasionally with remaining tequila mixture and turning once. Sprinkle skewers with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; serve with lime wedges garnished with cilantro, if desired.
