Grilled Shrimp Tossed In Lemon Garlic Sauce Food

SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP WITH GARLIC & LEMON

Steps:

• Combine oil, garlic, celery seed, and red pepper flakes in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until garlic is golden, sizzling, and fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes. Whisk in mustard and transfer to a bowl; cool completely.
• Add shrimp and sliced lemon to oil mixture. Season with salt and black pepper; toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour.
• Heat grill to medium-high. Grill shrimp and lemon slices until lemons and shrimp are lightly charred and shrimp are just cooked through, 1 to 3 minutes per side.
• To serve, transfer to a platter, sprinkle with chives, and squeeze lemon halves over top.

LEMON GARLIC HERB GRILLED SHRIMP RECIPE

Steps:

• To make the marinade, whisk together all ingredients except shrimp.
• Marinate shrimp at room temperature in half of the dressing for 20-30 minutes, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. Reserve the remaining marinade to use for basting later.
• Thread shrimp onto kabob skewers (if using wooden skewers, make sure that you soak the skewers in water for about 30 minutes before adding the shrimp).
• Grill the shrimp over high heat for a total of about 3-5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Use the remaining dressing to baste the shrimp while they cook.
• Garnish with additional herbs just before serving, if desired.

GARLIC GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 15 minutes.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Chop garlic on a cutting board. Sprinkle kosher salt over salt and with the back of a large knife, smash the garlic on the cutting board to form a paste.
• Heat garlic paste and olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat until garlic begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Skewer about 5 shrimp on each wooden skewer by piercing shrimp through the tail and the upper body. Season shrimp with kosher salt and pepper. Brush one side of the shrimp with garlic-infused olive oil.
• Place shrimp oil-side down on the preheated grill and brush with more olive oil; cook until shrimp begins to turn pink and curl, about 4 minutes. Turn shrimp over and brush with olive oil again. Continue grilling until shrimp is opaque and pink all over, about 4 minutes more.

GRILLED LEMON SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat up grill.
• Peel and chop garlic. Mix with lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper to make a marinade. Wash shrimp and marinate for 30 minutes. Then put on skewers and grill on each side for 2-3 minutes. Cut the lemon into slices and place on the grill.
• Serve shrimp skewers with lemon slices on plates.

GRILLED SPICY GARLIC SHRIMP

Steps:

• Prepare brining solution and brine shrimp for 20-25 minutes -- remove shrimp feet and devein with shells left on (this isn't absolutely necessary but it does seem to result in moister grilled shrimp), rinse and dry.
• Using mortar& pestle smash garlic and salt into a smooth paste.
• Add cayenne and paprika and mix well.
• Add olive oil and lemon to form a thin paste.
• (NOTE: Make sure the paste isn't too loose or it will not cling to the shrimp.) Toss shrimp with paste until evenly coated.
• (This mixture can be covered and refrigerated for up to an hour before grilling).
• Grill until shells are bright pink- 2-3 minutes per side.

GRILLED GARLIC BUTTER PRAWNS

Steps:

• If your prawns haven't been deveined, use a sharp pair of kitchen scissors and make a long incision down the length of the back then remove the vein.
• Place the prawns in a large bowl. Pour over the oil and season with the cajun spice, lemon pepper and salt. Mix well to ensure all the prawns are evenly coated.
• To make the sauce, melt the butter in a large pot (the pot needs to be big enough to toss all the prawns in once they are cooked) and add the garlic, lemon juice and spices.
• Allow to cook for a minute until fragrant then pour in the cream. Bring to a simmer and allow to cook for 5 minutes then remove from the heat.
• Taste and adjust seasoning accordingly. The sauce needs to be a little too lemony and very well seasoned. Once the prawns are added, the sauce will mellow a bit.
• Preheat the grill for 10-15 minutes. I prefer using an outdoor grill/braai/barbecue as the smoke adds incredible flavor to the shrimp once cooked but you can use a griddle pan too.
• Add the prawns and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they are coral/orange in color. As the prawns cook, add them to the pot with the sauce.
• Once all the prawns have been added, toss to coat the prawns in the sauce.
• Serve over rice or with crusty bread and extra lemon wedges.

• Pat shrimp with paper towels. THread shrimp onto 3 skewers, alternating direction of head and tails. Brush both sides of shrimp with oil and season lighly with salt and pepper. Sprnkle one side of each skewer evenly with sugar.
• Place shrimp skewers, sugared sides down, on hot side of grill. Grill shrimp, uncovered, until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. USing tongs, flip and grill until second side is pink and slighly translucent, 1-2 minutes.
• Using potholder or oven mitt, carefully lift each skewer from grill; use tongs to slide shrimp off skewers and into sauce. Toss shrimp and sauce to combine and transfer pan to hot side of grill; cook, stirring, until shrimp are opaque and fully cooked, about 30 seconds.

LEMON GRILLED SHRIMP COCKTAIL

Steps:

• 1. Soak 24 10-inch wooden skewers in water to cover for 6 to 8 hours. (This helps prevent their burning on the grill.)
• 2. Combine all the marinade ingredients in a large bowl.
• 3. Rinse the shrimp under cold water. Drain and pat dry. Toss shrimp in the marinade and let rest for 30 minutes.
• 4. Prepare hot coals for grilling or preheat the broiler.
• 5. Thread 16 skewers with 3 shrimp each and 8 skewers with 2 shrimp each. Grill or broil 4 inches from the heat source for 3 minutes per side, brushing once on each side with extra marinade.
• 6. To serve, place a lemon half in the bottom of 8 wine glasses, cut-side down. Into each lemon half, stick 2 skewers with 3 shrimp and 1 skewer with 2 shrimp, balancing them. Insert a rosemary sprig into each lemon half (using an extra skewer to jab a hole, if necessary). Serve the glasses atop small plates with a bowl of my Lemon Garlic Mayonnaise for dipping.
