Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil

1 tbsp minced garlic

2 tsp lemon juice

1/2 tsp pepper

1 pinch finely chopped parsley

500g frozen shrimp, thawed and peeled

metal skewers

cooking spray

Directions

Whisk together olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, pepper, and parsley in a bowl.

Pour the mixture into a large resealable plastic bag. Add shrimp, coat in the marinade, remove excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the fridge for 2 hours.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat; lightly oil the grate. Lightly coat metal skewers with cooking spray.

Remove shrimp from the marinade, shaking off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Place about 5 shrimp on each skewer.

Grill until shrimp are bright pink and opaque, about 5 minutes; do not overcook.

Serve with lemon wedges, if desired. Enjoy!
