How to Make Barbecued Recipes Grilled Shrimp
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup barbecue sauce, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and salt and pepper to taste.
- Add 1 pound of shrimp (peeled and deveined) to the marinade. Toss gently to coat and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Thread shrimp onto skewers or place them in a wire grill basket.
- Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the grill; grill in batches if necessary.
- Remove from grill and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro, if desired.
