Coach Eddie here with Premier Boxing for Fitness.  Ah, summertime... The days are sun-filled and the nights are warm and long. There’s nothing better than inviting some friends over and sharing laughs over a delicious meal.

Kick off the grill season appropriately with this recipe for citrus grilled shrimp. It’s a true crowd-pleaser.

This dish is not only delicious, but it’s so easy too. And let’s be honest, we all could use more easy recipes in our recipe arsenal – especially when entertaining a crowd.

Citrus and shrimp make a wonderful flavor combination. The tanginess of the lemon and lime is taken up a notch with a touch of sweetness from the honey. For best results, let the marinade sit on the shrimp for 15-30 minutes to get the most of the flavor.

This recipe can be served as an appetizer, paired with a colorful salad, or eaten on top of cauliflower rice.
