Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pickled Onions

    In a small bowl, combine the thinly sliced red onion with red wine vinegar and a pinch of salt. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to pickle.

  2. 2

    Make the Chimichurri Sauce

    In a blender or food processor, combine the parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and set aside.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a mixing bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

  4. 4

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Skewer the marinated shrimp or place them directly on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are pink and opaque.

  5. 5

    Serve

    On a serving plate, arrange the grilled shrimp, top with chimichurri sauce, and garnish with pickled onions and sliced apple.
