Grilled Garlic Shrimp

Shrimp Eatin' Excellence

These delectable shrimp make for a perfect side to accompany a grilled steak or serve as a delightful appetizer. They are incredibly easy to prepare and bursting with flavor. My kids are crazy about shrimp and could devour a whole bushel by themselves, I'm sure! So, whether you share their shrimp obsession or simply enjoy savoring tasty shrimp dishes, this recipe is a grilling masterpiece.

Ingredients:

  • 16-20 large shrimp, shelled and deveined, with tails left on
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon dry oregano
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley (or 1 tablespoon dry)
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

How To Make It:

  1. In a measuring cup, thoroughly mix together the olive oil, chopped garlic, oregano, parsley, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Place the shrimp in a 1-gallon freezer bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and let the shrimp marinate for at least an hour.
  3. While the shrimp are marinating, soak wooden skewers in water to prevent them from burning on the grill.
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (350-400 degrees).
  5. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread them onto the soaked wooden skewers. Skewering them makes it easier to flip them on the grill.
  6. Place the shrimp on the grill directly over the heat source and grill covered for about 2 minutes per side.
  7. Now, your fantastic shrimp dish is ready to be served and savored!
