Grilled shrimp skewers are sure to be a favorite to top anything from tacos to pasta and salad to sandwiches! These grilled shrimp skewers are a quick 20-minute meal, flavored with garlic, lemon, and herbs.
1 lb. large shrimp peeled & deveined | |
1/4 cup olive oil | |
2 Tbsp. lemon juice | |
3/4 tsp. salt | |
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper | |
1 tsp. Italian seasoning | |
2 tsp. minced garlic | |
10-20 bamboo skewers, pre-soaked in water |
Stick it on a stick!
1. | Place the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic in a resealable plastic bag. Seal and shake to combine. |
2. | Add the shrimp to the bag and seal. Toss to coat evenly with the marinade. |
3. | Marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours. You don't want to marinate for longer than that, as the acid in the lemon juice will start to cook the shrimp. |
4. | Thread the shrimp onto skewers. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium high heat. |
5. | Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until shrimp are pink and opaque. |
6. | Broiler directions: Preheat the broiler. Place the shrimp skewers on a sheet pan coated with cooking spray. Broil for 2-3 minutes on each side or until shrimp are pink and opaque. |
