RumChata® Marinated Shrimp
Let’s get started by gathering our ingredients!

Ingredients
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup RumChata® liqueur
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the RumChata®, lime juice, cilantro, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
- Add the shrimp to the marinade, making sure they’re fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. If using skewers, soak them in water for 10 minutes to prevent burning.
- Remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread them onto skewers, about 4-5 shrimp per skewer.
- Grill the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook them!
- Once done, remove the shrimp from the grill and let them rest for a minute.
- Serve the RumChata® marinated shrimp warm, either on their own or over a bed of fresh greens. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
