Ingredients

2 pounds large shrimp (16 to 20 per pound), peeled and deveined (see note)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium yellow onion, small-diced
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
1/4 cup minced fresh basil
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup good olive oil
1 lemon, juiced

Directions

Combine all the ingredients and allow them to marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

Skewer the shrimp. I use 3 or 4 shrimp on a 12-inch skewer for dinner. Heat a grill with coals and brush the grill with oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Grill the shrimp for only 1 1/2 minutes on each side.

Note: I leave the tails on when I'm peeling the shrimp.

So easy, but guests love it!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We make this all the time. If you can get butterflied shrimp still in the shell, they are even better. Plus, we grill bread... (or broil) and then serve the shrimp over to soak up the sauce. So delicious and simple. Read more

Not Quite There
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I made this tonight and the only thing I did differently was halve the recipe since I was only cooking about 16 shrimp. The... family said, "Don't bother making it again". I thought it was good, but obviously they did not. Sorry.Read more
