Spicy Grilled Shrimp

Ingredients:
1 large clove garlic
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon Cajun spice or chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons oil
2 teaspoons fresh squeezed lime or lemon juice
1 pound shrimp, medium to large size
Lime wedges
kabob skewers

Directions:
Mince garlic with salt; mix with chili powder or Cajun spice and paprika, then make it into a paste 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.
