US meets UK

Om nom. Holy moly these are good. We were pretty tired after our fourth of July weekend and I wanted to make something quick and easy with whatever we had on hand. Which happened to be a few peaches, green onions, jalapenos, garlic, and some limes. and some coconut oil.

Spicy Peach Marinade:

Grocery list- 2 peaches, 2 green onions, 1 jalapeno, 2 limes, 3 garlic cloves,

Put 2 peaches 1.5 green onions (I mostly used the white part and a little bit of the green), 1/2 the deseeded jalapeno, 1/2 a peeled lime, and 2 garlic cloves in a food processor and puree.

Squeeze the 1.5 limes and chop the rest of the jalapeno, single garlic clove, into a bowl and pour the puree from the food processor.Set aside a 1/4 of a cup to brush on while on the grill.

Let your coconut oil heat/cool to liquid stage and pour 1.5 tablespoons in to the bowl with the majority of the marinade. Stick your peeled shrimp into the bowl, cover and marinate for an hour or 2.

Pop them on the grill and grill till you see the first side begin to get pink and flip. Brush the marinade on the newly grilled side and remove once all is pink.

We like to put the vegetables all on one set of skewers and the meat on another since they cook differently. In this case, the veggies take a bit longer than the shrimp.

Enjoy!
