Add the raw shrimp to the bowl with the marinade. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Cook the Shrimp
You can either grill, sauté, or boil the marinated shrimp. For grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat and cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. For sautéing, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook shrimp for 3-4 minutes until cooked through. If boiling, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes until pink.
