Canola oil is often less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

Start by preparing the marinade with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, the juice of 3 limes, 1/4 cup of unsalted butter (softened), and 4 to 5 minced garlic cloves. Mix these ingredients together.

Add 1/4 cup of minced cilantro leaves to the marinade and mix well. Do not season the marinade with salt and pepper yet.

Prepare the skewers by placing 4 to 5 shrimp onto each skewer. Make sure to use the skewers that are flat, resembling little swords, for better stability.

Season the shrimp on both sides with salt and pepper before grilling.

Preheat the indoor grill and place the skewers on it. Brush the shrimp with the cilantro marinade using a basting brush.

Grill the shrimp for a few minutes on one side, then flip them over and continue grilling for a couple of minutes longer on the other side.

Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the grill and sprinkle with a little bit of salt. Serve with lime wedges.
