Answer 4

Marinate the shrimp in a few tablespoons of lemon juice and about 1/3-1/2 cup of olive oil. While grilling sprinkle fresh or dried thyme leaves on the shrimp. Also, throw herbs under the shrimp, straight into the fire, its very delicious and aromatic... thank Mike Salmon from The Next Food Network Star for the idea:) ive used his idea once or twice and my grilled food taste great :)

Answer 5

This will work on a grill or in the Broiler. It is simple and fast. I serve it with rice.

Grilled Shrimp and Lemon Kebabs



24 medium shrimp, shells on, deveined
2 lemons, cut into small wedges
3 yellow squash or zucchini, ends trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 sprigs fresh basil
16 bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

Place the shrimp and lemon wedges on 8 skewers, alternating them. Halve the squash or zucchini lengthwise, then cut them into 1-inch-thick slices. Divide the squash among the remaining 8 skewers. (If you don't have skewers, place the individual ingredients on a baking sheet.) Place the skewers on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush the kebabs with the oil and season with the salt. Broil, turning once, until the shrimp are cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes total. Transfer the shrimp-and-lemon skewers to a platter. Continue to broil the squash until tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Serve the shrimp and squash with the basil, torn into pieces if desired.

Answer 6

I've posted this one before but it is SIMPLE and delicious.

Peel and devein your shrimp and marinate them in teriyaki (the thin/watery kind) for 30 minutes to an hour

remove the leaves from rosemary branches, leaving a few on the end, and place the leaves in the teriyaki marinade.

Soak the stripped branches in water for the same amount of time you marinate the shrimp.

Sharpen the end of the stripped branches and thread the shrimp onto the rosemary skewer. if you like, alternate lemon slices with the shrimp. You can also alternate mushrooms, onion pieces, and bell pepper chunks.

sprinkle with cajun seasoning.

Grill until done

Answer 7

"A very simple and easy marinade that makes your shrimp so yummy you don't even need cocktail sauce! Don't let the cayenne pepper scare you, you don't even taste it. My 2 and 4 year-olds love it and eat more shrimp than their parents!!! It is also a big hit with company, and easy to prepare. I make this with frozen or fresh shrimp and use my indoor electric grill if the weather is not good for outside grilling. Try it with a salad, baked potato, and garlic bread. You will not be disappointed!!!"

Answer 8

Buy a no fat italian dressing so you don't have to cut up all those tiny veggies. To this add the juice of one large lemon and some red pepper flakes. You can marinate the shrimp for up to 30 minutes in this.

Answer 9

I usually just put some garlic, olive oil and cayenne. . .It's actually what I had for dinner tonight. . .I do shrimp TONS of different ways. . .You can even use a dash of Zesty Italian (I know it sounds weird) and lightly rub it on during the grilling.

Answer 10

Grab your Tabasco or other fave hot sauce and marinate the shrimp in it - grill as usual serve over dirty rice. Yummy!
