How To Grill Shrimp Kebab
When it comes to Summer, you can’t have a cookout or BBQ without shrimp. Shrimp is the most popular seafood for good reasons: you can make them into grilled shrimp or shrimp skewers, shrimp kebab (kabob) that everyone just can’t stop eating. If you are firing up the grill for the first time this season, I have one of easiest grill shrimp recipes for you.
Marinade For Shrimp Kebab
This grilled shrimp recipe is marinated with the simple ingredients below:
Garlic Butter. Lemon juice. Cayenne Pepper. Herbs such as parsley.
See the recipe card for full information on ingredients. These garlic butter shrimp kebabs are exactly what you need to please your crowd. Just coat and marinate the garlic butter mixture on the shrimp, thread them on skewers or bamboo sticks. You can also use a compound butter, such as my garlic herb butter, for an extra burst of flavor!
How Long To Grill Shrimp
For this recipe, I recommend frozen, shelled, deveined and tail-on shrimps. You can get them at Target for $8-$9 for a 2-lb bag. Shrimp cook very fast on the grill. With direct heat, it takes about 1-2 minutes to grill the shrimp. If you use indirect heat, it will take 2-3 minutes to cook the entire shrimp, on both sides.
What To Serve With Shrimp Kebab
These shrimp on the sticks are great with other summer recipes and condiments such as Thai peanut sauce. For a backyard grilling and BBQ parties, I recommend the following recipes.
