Preparation

Marinate the Shrimp

In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the Mexican Rice

In a saucepan, sauté chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent. Add the rice and toast for a few minutes. Add chicken broth, tomato sauce, cumin, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until rice is cooked.

Cooking

Grill the Corn

Preheat the grill. Husk the corn and brush with butter. Grill for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until slightly charred. Season with salt to taste.

Sauté the Shrimp

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque.
