Cilantro-Lime Shrimp

A zesty, vibrant dish with juicy shrimp marinated in garlic, lime, and fresh cilantro—ready in 15 minutes!


🍤 Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 1 lb (450g) large shrimp, peeled & deveined
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • Zest and juice of 1 lime (about 2 tbsp juice)
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tsp honey (or sugar)
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

👩🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Marinate: In a bowl, mix shrimp with olive oil, garlic, lime zest/juice, cilantro, honey, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Let sit 10 mins (or up to 30 mins in the fridge).

2️⃣ Cook: Heat a skillet over medium-high. Add shrimp in a single layer (reserve marinade). Cook 2-3 mins per side until pink and opaque.

3️⃣ Finish: Pour reserved marinade over shrimp and simmer 1 min to thicken slightly.


🌮 Serving Ideas

  • Tacos: Serve in warm tortillas with avocado and slaw.
  • Bowls: Over rice or quinoa with black beans and corn.
  • Salad: Toss with greens, mango, and a lime vinaigrette.

💡 Tips

✔ Don’t overcook—shrimp turn rubbery fast!
✔ Grill option: Skewer and grill for smoky flavor.
✔ No honey? Substitute with agave or omit.

Bright, fresh, and packed with flavor—perfect for summer! 🌿🍋
