Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine butter, garlic, and parsley. Set aside.
- In a glass bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, parsley, tomato paste, basil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to 1 hour.
- Preheat the grill to medium heat (375°F).
- Thread the shrimp onto skewers and grill for 2-3 minutes per side or just until the shrimp are opaque. Remove from skewers and place in a serving bowl.
- If needed, warm the garlic butter in the microwave for a few seconds to melt. Drizzle the garlic butter over the shrimp and serve warm with lemon wedges if desired.
Notes
- Don't marinade the shrimp longer than 60 minutes. Over-marinating can make the shrimp mushy.
- Don't overcook the shrimp - cook just cook until opaque.
- If you don't have skewers, you can cook shrimp on a grill mat or in a grill pan.
- Store leftover shrimp in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
