Mexican Grilled Shrimp

We've made this recipe as a main dish a few times and I'm planning on doing it for New year's Eve. Shrimp has a fairly high natural sodium count, so you'll want to be careful not to overdo it.

1 lb Large Shrimp,Peeled
2 T Lime Juice
1 T Honey
1/2 t Cilantro
1/2 t Cumin
1/4 t Garlic Powder

Combine all ingredients in a zipped plastic bag. Turn to coat shrimp well. Marinate at least 2 hours. Grill or saute until done.
