Ingredients

1 (12 ounce) can beer
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1.5 pounds unpeeled medium shrimp

Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together beer and garlic. Add shrimp and toss to coat thoroughly. Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag, removing excess air before sealing. Place the bag in a bowl to prevent leaks and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat until it starts to smoke lightly. Remove shrimp from the marinade, shaking off any excess liquid. Discard the remaining marinade; do not reuse it.
Place shrimp on the hot grill pan. Cook until the shells turn pink and the shrimp become opaque, approximately 5 minutes, flipping halfway through.
