Ingredients

  • 1 lb 1 Large shrimp, deveined, peeled or unpeeled

  • 1/4 cup 1/4 Olive Oil

  • 2 tbsp 2 Lemon Juice

  • 3/4 tsp 3/4 Salt

  • 1/4 tsp 1/4 Pepper

  • 1 tsp 1 Italian Seasoning

  • 1 tbsp 1 Chopped parsley

  • Lemon Wedges for serving

Directions

  • Place the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic in a resealable plastic bag. Seal and shake to combine.
  • Add the shrimp to the bag and seal. Toss to coat evenly with the marinade.
  • Marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours. You don’t want to marinate for longer than that, as the acid in the lemon juice will start to cook the shrimp.rnThread the shrimp onto skewers. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium high heat.
  • Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until shrimp are pink and opaque.
  • Broiler directions: Preheat the broiler. Place the shrimp skewers on a sheet pan coated with cooking spray. Broil for 2-3 minutes on each side or until shrimp are pink and opaque.rnSprinkle with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
