Turn off the flame, then add the remaining 2 ounces tequila.

GRILLED TEQUILA LIME SHRIMP

Steps:

• Ensure the shrimp are peeled and deveined. I like to keep the tails on for a more finger-food-friendly serving option.
• Add the tequila, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, and chile powder to a large bowl. Thoroughly mix to combine all ingredients.
• Add your shrimp to the marinade and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Place it in the fridge for 1-4 hours so the shrimp can marinate and soak up all of the flavors.
• Soak some bamboo skewers in water while the shrimp marinates. This prevents them from burning while on the grill (see recipe notes)
• Preheat your charcoal grill. You want a grill that is fairly hot with direct heat.
• Pierce 4-5 shrimp on each skewer (see recipe notes).
• Place the shrimp skewers on the grill and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side. The shrimp will cook very quickly and should form a "C" when fully cooked, not an "O" (see recipe notes).
