Ingredients

16 jumbo shrimp, deveined in shell, raw
Extra-virgin olive oil, about 1/2 cup for brushing
Coarse salt and black pepper
2 lemons, halved

Directions

Preheat griddle or grill pan over high heat.

Butterfly shrimp by slicing almost through lengthwise, but leave shell on shrimp, this will keep the shrimp tender while grilling over such high heat.

Brush shrimps with oil, season with salt and pepper and grill 2 minutes on each side, until shells are hot pink and shrimp is opaque.

Place lemons on grill the last minute. The heat will release the juice from the lemons. To serve, squeeze grilled lemon wedges over shrimp.

OMG. Best grilled shrimp I ever made. The kids ate it up.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Very easy to prepare. However, I only used one lime, not two lemons. Also, 1/2 cup of EVOO is way too much oil. A quarter... cup is likely ample.Read more

Did everyone who prepared this dish cut through the shell on back of shrimp or "belly" side? I couldn't cut through shell so... I peeled. Would like to do it right...can someone help??Read more

BEST SHRIMP EVER!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

WOW, the shrimp were delicious! Leaving the shell on really does keep the shrimp soft and tender. Loved the warm lemon on... them. It is very simple yet so tasty. Everyone was fighting for the last of the shrimp. Can't wait to make it again and again!! Thanks!!Read more
