Tips and Tricks

Make sure the grill or grill pan is hot before adding the shrimp to ensure they cook evenly and don't stick to the surface.
Use a flat skewer to thread the shrimp onto for easy flipping on the grill.
To save time, prepare the marinade the night before and let the shrimp marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
