CARIBBEAN GRILLED SHRIMP
This recipe reminds so much of the taste of vacation that I HAD to share it! We tasted it a few years ago, and begged the chef for the recipe just about everyday during our stay! A few simple ingrediants, 1- 2 hours of marinade time, and VOILA! The compliments will just keep on coming!

Steps:
- Prepare your shrimp, and leave in the fridge until you're ready.
- Next, mix the rum, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, ground pepper, chopped basil, olive oil, garlic salt and juice from 2 of the limes.
- Using a chocolate grater, add the zest from the third lime to the mix.
- Use the juice from the last lime, and add that to the mix as well.
- Place your shrimp into the liquid, and leave for between 1 - 2 hours. (60 minutes seems to be the magic number for us, because after that, the rum is a little overpowering).
- Grill on a hot barbeque about 2-3 minutes each side, or until pink. The caramelisation is amazing!
- In absence of a barbeque, pan frying or broiling is good too.
- We serve on stir fried vegetables (using the juice from the mix) and pasta.
- ENJOY!
