The marinade is what really makes these shrimp pop. They are also quick to prepare and easy to eat.

Method

To marinate the shrimp: In a large bowl, stir together the marinade ingredients until well combined. Meanwhile, peel and devein the shrimp and remove the tails. (Or purchase cleaned raw shrimp.) Add shrimp to the marinade and stir to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours. Soak the skewers in water for at least 1 hour. To prepare the shrimp: Heat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside. Skewer a shrimp, curled into a circle, on the tip of a skewer, so that it looks like a shrimp "lollipop." (Be sure to thread both head and tail ends of shrimp onto the skewer.) As each skewer is done, lay it on the prepared baking sheet, spacing the skewers apart, not touching. Spoon some of the marinade on top of each shrimp. (Discard remaining marinade.) Roast the shrimp for about 5 minutes or until just cooked through and pink. Serve the shrimp skewers on a platter and garnish with cilantro springs.
