Pina Colada Shrimp - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/4 lbs shrimp (about 36 medium-large )
1 cup coconut milk, canned
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 3 limes)
1 cup pineapple juice, canned
1/2 cup dark rum
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
salt
black pepper
steamed rice (optional)

Preparation

Peel the shrimp and devein them under running water.
In a medium bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients except the rice.
Add the shrimp, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 5 hours (if it sits longer than this the lime juice will \"cook' the shrimp).
Using a slotted spoon, remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread on metal skewers.
Prepare a fire in a charcoal grill.
When the coals are medium hot, place the skewers on the cooking rack and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp turn pink.
Serve with steamed rice, if you like.
