Warmer weather has finally started to make an appearance here in New England. Have you fired up your grill yet? Well then you’ll need some awesome grilling recipes. Here is an amazing one that my family loves so much that I use it year round. If I can’t get out to the grill, I broil it in the oven! This Grilled Shrimp {Scampi} adds a bit of a twist on the traditional recipe. The addition of ginger and lime  juice creates a fresh bright flavor that’s perfect for summer time grilling.

Grilled Shrimp {Scampi}

I plan on making batches of this mouth watering basting marinade to store in the freezer. I like to have it on hand for a quick and easy meal on those busy nights. You literally have it on and off the grill in about 7 minutes!
