Shrimp

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Shrimp

    Add the jumbo shrimp to the marinade, making sure they are well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Shrimp

    Remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread them onto skewers. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.

  3. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the shrimp from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges, if desired.
