Juicy Spicy Grilled Shrimp Skewers Recipe – Perfect for BBQs

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Have made this several time and always a winner. EASY Receipe! I dont think there is enough acid from the lemon to worry about cooking shrimp if marinated longer. I have marinated over night when plans changed a couple times with no problem. If you are worried about it leave the lemon out till the last 30 minutes of marinade. Thats the plan on this large batch currently soaking the last 24 hours. Tripled the recipe for 5 pounds of colossal pink key west shrimp. Also grill lemons and squeeze the juice while grilling with extra grilled lemon for those you want or just a garnish. Only thing I ever worry about is running out of shrimp.

    Spicy Grilled Shrimp Skewers,I suggest to use fresh shrimp for this as frozen thawed will create a watery marinade, do not marinade for longer than 30 minutes or the acid in the lemon juice will “cook” the shrimp, adjust the cayenne to suit heat level, I have left the Tabasco as optional you may add it or omit — this shrimp is very good!,Have made this several time and always a winner.
