Ingredients
Scale
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 ripe avocados, cubed
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp lime juice
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Marinate the shrimp: In a large bowl, combine shrimp, minced garlic, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor.
Prepare skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water prior to assembly. This will prevent them from burning on the grill. If you’re using metal skewers, you’re good to go!
Assemble: Thread marinated shrimp and avocado cubes onto the skewers, alternating between the two for an attractive presentation.
Preheat grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using an indoor grill pan, make sure it’s well-oiled to prevent sticking.
Cook skewers: Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp turns opaque and is cooked through. Be careful not to overcook to keep the shrimp tender.
Add final touches: Remove from the grill and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving. Enjoy with a side of your favorite dipping sauce or over a fresh salad.
