Remove shrimp from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Place about 5 shrimp on each skewer.

Cook on the preheated grill until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 5 minutes; do not overcook.

Recipe Tip

Wooden skewers may be substituted for metal skewers if desired. Before using, soak wooden skewers in water for 15 minutes to prevent them from catching fire on the grill.
