Method

Entrees

  1. 1

    Make Marinade

    In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, lemon zest, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Prepare Shrimp

    Rinse shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels; place them in a large bowl.

  3. 3

    Marinate Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes to absorb flavors.

  4. 4

    Prepare Skewers

    If using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water for about 15 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.

  5. 5

    Assemble Kabobs

    Thread 2-3 shrimp onto each skewer, spacing them evenly and leaving a small gap at each end.

  6. 6

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F / 204°C). Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

  7. 7

    Grill Kabobs

    Grill skewers for 2-3 minutes per side, until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and lightly charred.

  8. 8

    Finish and Serve

    Remove from grill, let rest for 2-3 minutes, and serve with lemon wedges or a dipping sauce of choice.
