Directions
- Prepare the Marinade
In a medium bowl, mix coconut oil, lime zest, lime juice, minced garlic, honey (if using), salt, and pepper. For added texture and tropical flavor, stir in shredded coconut if desired. - Marinate the Shrimp
Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let sit for 15–20 minutes to absorb the flavors. - Assemble Skewers
Thread the shrimp onto skewers, leaving a little space between each piece to ensure even cooking. - Grill the Shrimp
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill shrimp 2–3 minutes per side, until pink, opaque, and slightly charred. Optional: sprinkle extra shredded coconut on top while grilling for a lightly toasted flavor. - Serve Immediately
Plate the shrimp skewers with lime wedges and garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve with steamed rice, a fresh salad, or enjoy as a flavorful appetizer.
