In some BIOS/firmwares you'll have the option to 'add' an entry, and you
can just point a new one to EFI/centos/shim.efi, save and be done with it.
Otherwise you can do something like:
efibootmgr -c -d /dev/sda -p 1 -L "CentOS" -l '\EFI\centos\shim.efi'
there are a couple efi files inside /boot/efi/EFI/centos, but shim is
the one to point to for secureboot to work properly.
