I made these shrimp skewers for a party last weekend and they were a huge hit! Everyone loved them. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the marinade was flavorful without being overpowering. I will definitely be making these again.

These shrimp skewers are delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly. The shrimp were cooked through but still tender, and the marinade gave them a great flavor. I will definitely be making these again.

I love this recipe! The shrimp are always so tender and juicy. I also like that it's a relatively quick and easy meal to make. I often serve these skewers with a side of grilled vegetables.

These shrimp skewers were pretty good. The shrimp were cooked well and the marinade was flavorful. However, I found the skewers to be a bit dry. I think next time I'll try grilling them for a shorter amount of time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices to the marinade and it helped a lot. The shrimp were still a bit overcooked, but overall they were still good.

Not a fan. The shrimp were overcooked and the marinade was too salty. I think I'll stick to my old shrimp skewer recipe.

These shrimp skewers were a hit at my last party! The brine and marinade added so much flavor to the shrimp, and the grilling gave them a nice smoky taste. I will definitely be making these again.
