Ingredients

  • 1 pound large shrimp

For the marinade

  • juice 1 lime
  • zest of 1 lime finely grated or chopped
  • pinch salt and pepper
  • 6 tsp finely chopped red Thai chilis or 2 crushed chili paste
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp light soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or peanut oil

Instructions

  1. Mix together all of the ingredients for the marinade well.
  2. Place the shrimp in the bottom of a glass baking dish or casserole. Pour the marinade over the shrimp.
  3. Marinate in the fridge for 20-30 minutes depending on how large the shrimp are; smaller shrimp will need no more than 15 minutes.
