– Start with fresh shrimp for a tender, juicy texture. It’s key to getting the perfect bite with every skewer. –
Fresh Shrimp
– The garlicky marinade elevates the shrimp’s natural sweetness. Let the shrimp soak up the rich flavors for maximum taste. –
Garlic Flavor
– Allow the shrimp to marinate for 15–30 minutes. This gives the garlic and herbs time to infuse into every piece. –
Marinate Time
– Thread shrimp onto skewers evenly. This ensures they cook uniformly and allows for an easy flip on the grill. –
Skewer Tips
– Grill shrimp over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side. Overcooking can result in a rubbery texture, so keep an eye on them! –
Grilling Perfection
– Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for a burst of citrus that brightens the flavors of the shrimp. –
Lemon Zest
