Garlic Grilled Shrimp

Ingredients

• 1 ½ pounds raw jumbo shrimp thawed, peeled and deveined leaving tails on
• ¼ cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 3 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

1. Place the shrimp in a medium bowl and add olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, parsley, and garlic. Give everything a good stir and allow it to marinate for 15-20 minutes.
2. Thread the shrimp onto skewers. Depending on the size of your skewers you can fit 3-6 shrimp on each. I used stainless steel skewers, but you can also use wooden ones. See notes below for tips.
3. Preheat the grill to medium high heat, clean, and oil the grates to prevent sticking. Place the shrimp on a grill.
4. Grill shrimp on each side for 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp is opaque and white/pink.
5. Serve warm with a drizzle of lemon juice.
