Shrimp: Garlic Butter

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (900g) large shrimp, peeled and deveined (tails on, if desired)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder (optional, for heat)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for topping)

Directions

MARINATE:
In a large bowl, mix olive oil, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the shrimp and toss until evenly coated. Marinate for 15-30 minutes.

GRILL:
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
If using skewers, thread the shrimp onto skewers for easier handling.
Place shrimp on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until they turn pink and slightly charred. Avoid overcooking to keep them tender.

GARLIC BUTTER:
While the shrimp are grilling, combine the remaining melted butter with any leftover marinade. Brush this mixture onto the shrimp during the last minute of grilling.

SERVE:
Transfer the grilled shrimp to a serving platter.
Garnish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
