Parsley and Lime Shrimp Marinade

Here's an easy, flavorful marinade I've used for shrimp (of course you can always try it on something else, like chicken).

Ingredients:

Olive oil

2-3 sprigs of fresh parsley

Zest of a lime

1/2 lime (juiced)

Cracked black pepper

Sea salt

Garlic powder

Red pepper flake

Paprika

Oregano

Like most things I throw together, I don't really have measurements for you. As my father would say, "you need just the right amount". If you fold the parsley into a ball, essentially, and then chop it closely you will have very little difficulty getting the parsley to the right size. Make sure to cut off the stems off of the parsley - the leaf is what you want. Combine olive oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, parsley, lime zest, lime juice, red pepper flake, paprika and oregano together in a bowl and then stir in shrimp. Let sit for 30 minutes to a couple of hours and then grill. Easy, healthy, and delicious!

Goes well with rice. Our group tried it with the Crunch Walnut Risotto and it was great.
