Shrimp Skewers
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Shrimp Marinade
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.
Marinate the Shrimp
Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Prepare Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes prior to grilling to prevent burning.
Cooking
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F to 450°F).
Skewer the Shrimp
Thread the marinated shrimp onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each shrimp to allow for even cooking.
Serve
Remove the skewers from the grill and serve immediately with your choice of dipping sauce or a fresh salad.
