Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

  • Wooden or metal skewers

Instructions

  1. Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes if using.

  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates.
  5. Thread the marinated shrimp onto the skewers, about 4-5 shrimp per skewer. Discard the excess marinade.
  6. Place the skewers on the preheated grill.
  7. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Do not overcook.
  8. Remove from the grill and serve immediately. Enjoy the flavor!

Notes

  • For a beautiful presentation, garnish the finished skewers with extra fresh parsley or lemon wedges.
  • If you do not have a grill, you can easily cook these under your oven’s broiler. Watch them closely as they cook fast.
  • Choose large, high-quality shrimp for the best texture.
