Grilled Garlic Lemon Shrimp Skewers

Steps

  1. If you use wooden skewers, soak them in water so they don't burn on the grill.
  2. Pat the shrimp dry and toss them in a bowl with the oil, garlic, lemon zest, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Let them sit while the grill heats, no longer than 30 minutes.
  3. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high, about 400°F to 450°F, and brush the grates with oil.
  4. Thread the shrimp onto the skewers through the thick end and the tail so they lie flat, leaving a little space between them.
  5. Grill until the bottoms turn pink with light char marks.
  6. Flip and grill until the shrimp are opaque all the way through and reach 145°F (63°C); they curl into a loose C shape when done.
