In a large zip-close bag, combine all the spices add the shrimp and SHAKE!

Meanwhile in a small bowl combine 2 cups of cubed papaya (I used mango), scallions, and 1 limed peeled and dice..set aside. (This is your salsa for the shrimp) WAIT I added some red onions..

Preheat the grill or broiler. (I used BROILER). Spray a grill basket or the broiler rack with nonstick cooking spray. Grill the shrimp or broil them 6 inches from the heat until pink and cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. Serve with the salsa on the side!

This really turned out good. Jim wasn’t too big on the sweet salsa, but I thought it went well with the spicy shrimp.

MY RATING: 9!!

Jim’s: 8.5
