Description

Quick, tasty and perfect for a weeknight.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Jumbo Shrimp, Peeled And Deveined (about 20)
  • 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil (extra Virgin Or Regular)
  • 3 Tablespoons Cholula (Tabasco Or Frank's Also Works)
  • 2 Tablespoons Smoked Paprika (or Pimenton)
  • 2 Tablespoons Garlic Salt

Preparation

1. If using a charcoal grill, start your coals in a starter and when they have turned white, add them to your grill and prepare a medium hot fire.

2. Peel and devein the raw shrimp.

3. For the jumbo shrimp, insert your skewers on opposite ends of the shrimp (about 2 inches apart). Add 6 shrimp per pair of skewers and make sure to skewer them evenly. Transfer skewers to a large plate or rimmed baking sheet.

4. Drizzle one side of the shrimp with half of the above olive oil and half of the Cholula. Sprinkle half of the above amount of garlic salt and smoked paprika on the shrimp. Turn and repeat with the other side.

5. Once your grill is ready, oil grates and put the shrimp on the grill. Only grill for about 2-3 minutes per side or until the shrimp turns pink. The shrimp cooks really quickly and becomes rubbery if it’s left on too long. Enjoy!

This was very good. The shrimp were delicious and I especially loved the smoky flavor of the paprika. The only thing I’ll do different next time is probably just toss everything together rather than drizzle it over the shrimp.

I bought skewered shrimp on sale this morning, but I didn’t know what I wanted to do with them. This was perfect – quick, easy & delicious. I didn’t have smoked paprika, so I used Old Bay blackened seasoning. I can’t wait to make it again! Thanks!
