1
Prepare the Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
2
Marinate the Shrimp
In a bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat and let marinate for 15-20 minutes.
3
Assemble the Skewers
Thread the marinated shrimp onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each shrimp.
4
Cook the Shrimp
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shrimp skewers and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
5
Serve
Remove the skewers from the skillet, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
