Wooden skewers soaked in warm water for at least 30 minutes, or metal skewers
Directions
Rinse the shrimp in cold water. Using a small pair of scissors or paring knife, carefully cut a slit in the back of each shrimp. Place the shrimp in a large bowl or a large plastic resealable bag.
In a small bowl, mix together the tequila, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin, black pepper, salt and cilantro. Pour this mixture over the shrimp, tossing to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator up to 45 minutes.
To prepare the Sauce:
In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Preheat the grill on high. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread on skewers. Discard the marinade. When the grill is ready, oil the grate well. Grill the shrimp until the shells turn pink and the shrimp are just opaque, turning once during grilling.
Remove from the grill and serve with the sauce.
Comments: The sauce also works well with grilled sea scallops.
