Recipe for Grilled shrimp with cilantro, lime and peanuts

1904

I was on the todayshow.com website and came across this article titled “Editor’s choice: 15 recipes to satisfy cravings” and one of the recipes that caught my eye was the Grilled shrimp with cilantro, lime and peanuts.

It was part of this “Martha’s simply scrumptious shrimp dishes“… the domestic guru shares three flavorful, fresh and healthy recipes. There are also a few other shrimp recipes on there that sounds delicious. In the August issue of Martha Stewart Living, Martha Stewart shares her tips and recipes for three flavorful, fresh and healthy dishes that are perfect for a summer get-together.

I am going to try making this one this weekend. Has anyone else tried this recipe yet ?
