Ingredients

• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
• 1 pound extra large shrimp, peeled and deveined

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Combine oil, lemon juice, garlic cloves, parsley, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until marinade is smooth, about 20 seconds.

Step 3

Pour marinade into a resealable gallon-sized plastic bag. Add shrimp to the bag and toss to coat with the marinade. Seal bag and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 4

Soak wooden skewers in cold water while shrimp is marinating.

Step 5

Remove shrimp from marinade and thread onto skewers, 5 to 6 shrimp per skewer. Cook the shrimp on the preheated grill until they are bright pink on the outside and no longer transparent in the center, about 3 minutes per side.
