How to Make Easy Grilled Shrimp

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Thread shrimp onto skewers (optional, but recommended for easier grilling).
  4. Place shrimp skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and cooked through.
  5. Remove from grill and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or lemon wedges, if desired.
