Preparation
- Combine all the ingredients except the shrimp in a blender and process until smooth. Place the shrimp in a large plastic bag or in a nonreactive bowl and pour the marinade over them, turning or stirring to coat. Refrigerate, stirring occasionally, for at least 2 hours and up to 12.
- When ready to cook, preheat the broiler or prepare a charcoal grill. Thread the shrimp on metal skewers and broil or grill, turning and basting with some of the leftover marinade, until nicely browned and cooked through, about 5 to 6 minutes. Serve immediately.
