Honey, Garlic and Lime Shrimp Recipe

This is a great recipe for shrimp! I really love the mixture of honey, garlic and lime. The marinade is easy to make, and it takes no time at all to cook the shrimp. My daughter and I both are huge shrimp fans and I just love trying new shrimp recipes. This is a recipe I will be making it often for a quick and easy weeknight dinner.
