Grilled Shrimp Recipe With Green Tea & Peach Marinade
This fruity marinade also works well with chicken. You can experiment with other teas (including red tea and fruity teas like lemon and mango) and types of fruit, as well as other seafood, throughout the year. Use a better-quality peach preserves. They’re made with more fruit and less sugar, so your dish will be fruitier, less sugary.
