Best Grilled Marinated Shrimp Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup olive oil
• 0.25 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined with tails attached
• 6 skewers skewers

Instructions

1. Gather all the necessary ingredients for the marinated shrimp recipe.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, parsley, lemon juice, hot pepper sauce, minced garlic, tomato paste, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Set aside a small portion of the marinade for basting the shrimp later.
3. Place the remaining marinade in a large resealable plastic bag. Add the shrimp, ensuring they are fully coated with the marinade. Remove any excess air from the bag and seal it tightly. Marinate the shrimp in the refrigerator for 2 hours to allow the flavors to fully develop.
4. Preheat your grill to medium-low heat. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers, piercing each shrimp near the tail and again near the head. Discard any leftover marinade that was not used.
5. Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. Grill the shrimp until they turn opaque and are cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side. Baste frequently with the reserved marinade while grilling.
6. Serve the grilled marinated shrimp immediately and enjoy!
