Notes

Don't marinade the shrimp for longer than 1 hour. The acid from the lemon juice can actually cook the shrimp.

If you're using wooden skewers/bamboo skewers don't forget to soak them for at least 30 minutes so they don't burn.

If you don't have a grill you can broil the shrimp in the oven for 2-3 minutes then flip and broil for another 2-3 minutes. Watch carefully so they don't burn.
