Spicy Grilled Shrimp

Over the weekend, I tried this recipe for spicy grilled shrimp.  Normally, I don't like cooking seafood on my own because it's a lot of work, and I hate that "fishy" taste (which I can never seem to get rid of).  But this recipe is a winner!

Ingredients:
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
4 tsp seafood seasoning
2 tsp lemon pepper
1 tsp dried basil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 lb medium raw shrimp, peeled & deveined


Just 3 Easy Steps!

1. COMBINE all ingredients (except shrimp), whisking until thickened.  Add shrimp to marinade.  Cover & refrigerate 30 mins. 
2. HEAT grill to medium-high.  If you're using non-stick foil, make drainage holes.  Then, arrange shrimp on top.
3. GRILL 2-3 mins.  Turn shrimp and baste.  Grill another 2-3 mins or until shrimp are firm & pink.

I didn't have seafood seasoning, so I substituted it with cajun seasoning. It came out really good (sorry, was so hungry that I forgot to take an "after" pic).  I decided to pair the shrimp with some linguine tossed in Barilla's new Basilico tomato & basil pasta sauce (which is amazing!) & a side of garlic bread.

Hope you'll enjoy this recipe too!
