Ingredients

2 tbsp chili powder

1 ½ tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice

½ tsp olive oil

¼ tsp salt

6 Skewers

Pico de Gallo

12 corn tortillas

Directions

Preheat your grill.
Heat up your black beans.
Mix the chili powder, lime, and salt to form a paste. Set aside while you prepare the shrimp skewers.
Place the shrimp on the skewers sideways so that each shrimp is pierced through the middle of its tail and the middle of the top, forming a “c” shape on the skewer.
Once all the shrimp have been skewered, brush the chili paste over the shrimp.
Grill for about 4 minutes on each side. (If using an indoor grill pan, grill for 2 minutes on each side.)
