Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Prepare your shrimp, and leave in the fridge until you're ready.
  2. Next, mix the rum, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, ground pepper, chopped basil, olive oil, garlic salt and juice from 2 of the limes.
  3. Using a chocolate grater, add the zest from the third lime to the mix.
  4. Use the juice from the last lime, and add that to the mix as well.
  5. Place your shrimp into the liquid, and leave for between 1 - 2 hours. (60 minutes seems to be the magic number for us, because after that, the rum is a little overpowering).
  6. Grill on a hot barbeque about 2-3 minutes each side, or until pink. The caramelisation is amazing!
  7. In absence of a barbeque, pan frying or broiling is good too.
  8. We serve on stir fried vegetables (using the juice from the mix) and pasta.
  9. ENJOY!
