Shrimp Marinade

Shrimp Cooking Methods

Method

Preparation of the Shrimp Marinade

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat all the shrimp evenly. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking the Shrimp

  1. 2

    Sautéed Shrimp

    Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add half of the marinated shrimp. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 3

    Grilled Shrimp

    Preheat the grill to medium heat. Skewer the remaining marinated shrimp (if using skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes first). Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and cooked through. Remove from the grill.

  3. 4

    Serving

    Plate the sautéed shrimp and grilled shrimp together. Melt the remaining butter and drizzle over the shrimp. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
