BBQ shrimp recipe

Ingredients

1 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined

½ cup green onions, chopped

1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped

¼ cup avocado, diced

1 big tomato, diced

¼ cup fresh cilantro, minced

Spicy Vinaigrette

3 tbsp.  extra-virgin olive oil

¼ cup lime juice

2 tsp. garlic, minced

1 tsp. ground cumin

2 tsp. of your favorite hot sauce

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat.

In a bowl, combine all the ingredients for the vinaigrette and mix well.

Coat all the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of the vinaigrette, and place on the grill. If you skewer the shrimp before grilling them, they’ll be easier to handle, but it’s not required that you do so. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, turning them once. Remove from the grill and set aside.

In a salad bowl, add all the ingredients except for the cooked shrimp. Add the remaining vinaigrette and toss gently.

Serve the shrimp on top of the salad with some fresh homemade guacamole if desired.

• 4 garlic cloves, smashed;
• ¼ cup raw honey; (optional)
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste;

2. Add the pork cubes to the marinade, and refrigerate for at least an hour.
3. Once the meat has finished marinating, heat up the BBQ to medium-high.
4. Skewer the meat with the green apples and the onions. Try to place the meat between the onion and the apple to give it extra flavor.
5. Season the skewers to taste with sea salt and black pepper, and place on the grill.
6. Cook each side for about 3 to 4 minutes (a total of 12-16 minutes).
7. Serve with a light summer salad.
