1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice |
1/3 cup olive oil |
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper |
1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro |
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional) |
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients together well in small bowl.
2. Adjust seasoning if desired.
3. Place chicken or shrimp in ziplock bag and pour in marinade.
4. For shrimp- marinate no longer than 1 hour.
5. For chicken- marinate no longer than 4 hours.
6. (The reason for the shortened marinating time is that the lime starts to cook the meat or seafood.) Grill!
