Grilled Shrimp With Lemon Garlic Drizzle
Description
A recipe for Grilled Shrimp With Lemon Garlic Drizzle
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup top quality Australian extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1 1/2 lemons, sliced
- Pinch sugar or to taste
- Sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 1 pound large, raw, peeled and deveined shrimp (tails on)
- Bamboo skewers, soaked in water
- Cedar grilling papers, soaked in water (optional)
Preparation
Prep time: 20 minutes | Cook time: about 15 minutes total | Stand time: 1 hour
Heat oil, garlic and lemon slices in small saucepan until barely simmering, pressing lemons with a spoon to release juices. Remove from heat and let stand for a few hours. Pour through fine mesh sieve into small bowl, pressing to remove as much oil as possible. Season to taste with sugar, salt and pepper.
Thread a few shrimp onto the top of each skewer. Wrap 2 skewers in each cedar grilling paper and tie with kitchen string. Grill over medium heat for about 8 to 10 minutes or until shrimp are pink and cooked through, drizzling with a little oil during the last minute of grilling. (Or place skewers directly on grill and cook for about 3 minutes on each side.) Remove from grill and place skewers on a platter; drizzle with lemon garlic oil.
