Thank goodness the warm, grilling weather has finally arrived!  We typically don’t spend as much time in the kitchen this time of year because in Michigan, you need to soak up every minute of sunshine and warmth while it’s around.  I love recipes like this that don’t take up much time but taste like the season.  From start to finish, including time to marinate, this recipe takes only 30 minutes and just feels like summer!

Tips & Variations for Chili Lime Shrimp Skewers

For a Paleo/Whole30 meal, serve with cauliflower rice and avocado.

Try this marinade on chicken or pork tenderloin.

For Meal Prep, portion individual servings of shrimp with salad greens and veggies.

If grilling isn’t an option, pan fry or broil the shrimp.
