Remove shrimp from skewers; divide between plates. Bring marinade to boil. Mix in onions, cheese and remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons cilantro. Spoon onion mixture over shrimp.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, succulent shrimp: The freshness of the shrimp plays a crucial role in the overall taste of the dish. Opt for wild-caught or sustainably farmed shrimp whenever possible.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp becomes tough and rubbery.
  • Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and oil not only enhances the taste but also helps tenderize it.
  • Use a hot grill: A hot grill is essential for getting a nice sear on the shrimp and imparting a smoky flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Grilled shrimp is best enjoyed hot off the grill. Serve it with your favorite dipping sauce or as part of a main dish.
