How to Make Spanish Shrimp
- Preheat grill to high heat.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
- Add 1 pound of shrimp (peeled and deveined) to the bowl and toss gently to coat completely.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) to allow the shrimp to marinate.
- Lightly oil a grill rack or use a grill basket to prevent sticking. Grill shrimp for 1-2 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque throughout. Do not overcrowd the grill; work in batches if necessary.
- Remove shrimp from grill and garnish generously with 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
- Squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lemon over the grilled shrimp before serving. Enjoy!
