This recipe calls for fresh ingredients, but if you are trying to save some time it tastes almost as good if you use the bottled lemon and lime juice, as well as the ready packaged or tubed cilantro and creamy garlic. Great recipe for marinating and grilling too!

Just a little something I threw together wanting a slightly different shrimp dish than what I've made before. Turned out great and very reminiscent of the "key west" shrimp pasta I enjoy at one of our favorite restaurants.
