8 extra-large shrimp, peeled
Bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 15 to 30 minutes
Marinade:
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
4 sprigs fresh thyme
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1 shallot, sliced thin
Spice Rub:
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons mustard powder
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dry thyme
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon oregano
Combine the ingredients for the marinade. Add the shrimp, cover, and chill for approximately 3 hours.
Meanwhile, combine the spice rub ingredients and set aside.
To cook: Remove the shrimp from the marinade, skewer onto bamboo skewers, and season with a pinch of the spice rub. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat and grill the shrimp for 2 1/2 minutes on each side.
