Just an age old family recipe. It can be tamed down or kicked up a notch. Ingredients:
3 green onions, minced |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 teaspoons paprika |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon creole seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 tablespoon hot sauce |
1 1/2 lbs shrimp, shelled with tails intact, deveined |
6 lemon wedges |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in bowl except shrimp, mix well then add shrimp and turn to coat evenly.
2. Cover and refridgerate at least 15 minutes.
3. Thread shrimp on skewers, metal or wooden. If using wooden skewers soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning. We soaked them in beer.
4. Grill shrimp over medium-hot briquets about 2 minutes per side until opaque.
5. Serve with lemon wedges.
