Grilled Shrimp with Cumin & Cilantro

Shrimp are an easy fix on the grill. Just as easy is this fragrant and delicious marinade. Toasted garlic and shallots, some rough-chopped cilantro and the added benefit of toasted cumin elevate plain old shrimp to grill-worthy status. Serve it on a bed of Roasted & Toasted Garlic Hummus for a fantastic meal.
