with the oil and lemon or lime juice. Clean, rinse and shell shrimp. Thread on skewers. Smear paste on shrimp. Grill or broil shrimp, 2 to 3 minutes a side, turning once. Serve immediately or at room temperature, with lime or
lemon wedges. This is good with a fresh salad, baked potatoes with sour cream and chives plus some nice light bread.
