Method
Grilled Shrimp Directions
- 1
Prepare the Marinade
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

Marinate the Shrimp
Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.

Preheat the Grill
While the shrimp is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat on the stove.

Grill the Shrimp
Once the grill is hot, thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes prior to prevent burning). Grill the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are cooked through.

Garnish and Serve
Remove the shrimp from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for garnish before serving.
