Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoon canola oil, or toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest
  • 3 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 12 raw shrimp, (8-12 per pound), peeled and deveined
  • 3 jalapeño peppers, stemmed, seeded and quartered lengthwise
  • 2 plums, pitted and cut into sixths

Cooking Directions

Step 1


Whisk oil, cilantro, lime zest, lime juice and salt in a large bowl. Set aside 3 tablespoons of the mixture in a small bowl to use as dressing. Add shrimp, jalapeños and plums to the remaining marinade; toss to coat.

Step 2


Preheat grill to medium-high.
