Yum, our tiger shrimp are running, thanks for the reminder... here's my favorite:
SHRIMP ON THE BARBIE
1 1/2 lb. medium-large shrimp, unpeeled 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup mixed herbs (parsley, thyme and cilantro) 3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice 3 large garlic cloves, crushed 1 Tbsp minced shallots salt and pepper to taste
Combine first 8 ingredients in large bowl. Mix in shrimp. Marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or in refrigerator for 5 hours, stirring occasionally.
Prepare barbie.. when coals are medium-hot shrimp is ready to bbq.
Thread shrimp on skewers and bbq until they turn opaque, about 2 minutes per side.
I serve with lemon wedges and a variety of dipping sauces. The ranch sauce also sounds good.
