How to Make Barbecued Shrimp With Garlic Mayonnaise

  1. **Garlic Mayonnaise:**
  2. Combine 1 large egg yolk, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 cloves minced garlic in a blender or food processor.
  3. Blend for 1 minute until well combined.
  4. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in 3/4 cup of light olive oil until the mixture emulsifies and thickens into a mayonnaise consistency.
  5. Transfer the mayonnaise to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. This makes approximately 1 cup of mayonnaise.
  7. Store any leftover mayonnaise in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  8. **Barbecued Shrimp:**
  9. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
  10. Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade.
  11. Gently toss to coat the shrimp completely.
  12. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
  13. Preheat your grill to medium heat.
  14. Drain the marinade from the shrimp.
  15. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
  16. Grill the shrimp for approximately 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until they turn pink and are cooked through. Do not overcook!
  17. Serve the barbecued shrimp immediately with a generous dollop of the chilled garlic mayonnaise.
