One of the easiest ways to cook shrimp is grilling, especially during spring and summer months. You can use all kinds of marinade to marinate shrimp. I personally love seasoning that pack a punch of spicy kick and flavors. This recipe is the best, juicy and absolutely delicious and best served with succulent grilled oysters.

Size does matter when it comes to shrimp. Get jumbo shrimp or tiger prawn if you can find them in the stores. You may use shell-on or EZ peel shrimp. Do not overcook or else the shrimp will turn rubbery. Rinse the shrimp with cold running water and pat dry with paper towels before adding marinade ingredients.
