Oh the places you can go with these amazing grilled shrimp! Less than 20 minutes of active prep and cook time makes this a shoe-in for an easy weeknight meal or casual dinner party. Spanish paprika lends a smoky flavor while lemon juice and sherry vinegar bring the zing. Serve these skewers over a bed of Spanish rice or use them as taco filling with some sliced avocado and cabbage shreds tossed with lime juice. Make a wonderful lunch salad by topping a bed of peppery arugula with tomato, avocado, radishes and these shrimp. A simple wedge of lime will dress it beautifully.
