Grilled Italian Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the paprika, garlic, Italian seasoning, lemon juice, olive oil, pepper, basil, and brown sugar together in a bowl until thoroughly blended. Stir in the shrimp, and toss to evenly coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, turning once.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat. Lightly oil grill grate, and place about 4 inches from heat source.
• Remove shrimp from marinade, drain excess, and discard marinade.
• Place shrimp on preheated grill and cook, turning once, until opaque in the center, 5 to 6 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat greased grill to medium heat. Mix oil, vinegar and dressing mix in cruet or small bowl as directed on envelope. Thread shrimp and salami alternately on eight skewers.
• Grill kabobs on 5 to 6 min. on each side or until shrimp turn pink.
• Arrange cheese slices on eight serving plates; top each with one kabob. Drizzle evenly with the dressing mixture; sprinkle with basil.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a large zip-lock bag.
• Seal and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours.
• Thread shrimp and veggies onto metal skewers, alternating as desired.
• Grill over medium heat about 4 minutes, turn once and grill 4 minutes more.
• Remove from skewers and serve hot.
• This also works as a stir-fry: Marinate as above and then saute all ingredients over medium-high heat in a large skillet until shrimp are pink.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients and allow them to marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
• Skewer the shrimp. I use 3 or 4 shrimp on a 12-inch skewer for dinner. Heat a grill with coals and brush the grill with oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Grill the shrimp for only 1 1/2 minutes on each side.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 2 minutes per side. Let cool 10 minutes and transfer to a non-metal bowl.
• Pour Italian dressing and lime juice over cooled shrimp and toss to coat. Add red bell peppers, onion, celery, and cilantro; mix lightly. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Place lettuce on a serving plate. Top with shrimp mixture and serve.

Steps:

• Place salt, lemon zest, and 3 cloves garlic in bowl of a mortar and pestle. Pound with the pestle until mixture begins to form a paste, about 2 minutes. Add chopped basil, parsley, oregano, and thyme and pound with pestle until mixture begin to come together, about 5 minutes.
• Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into herb mixture. Grind together until mixture begins to form a sauce for marinating, about 1 minute. Pour in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Stir mixture with a spoon until mixture is thoroughly combined, adding additional olive oil as needed. Mixture should be fairly thick but pourable.
• Place shrimp in a large bowl and mix in about 2/3 of the sauce, reserving 1/3 for serving. Stir until shrimp are evenly coated with the sauce, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining sauce.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Thread shrimp onto skewers (pierce each twice, once through large part of shrimp, once through small part). Place skewers on hot grill. Cook on each side until shrimp are bright pink and opaque and exterior is beginning to caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer skewers to serving platter.
• Pour remaining sauce into mixing bowl. Whisk in 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. Spoon sauce over shrimp. Serve with lemon wedges.
