Grilled Butterfly Shrimp
We love this quick, easy recipe that i found and 'tweaked' from betty crocker's barbecue cookbook. The recipe says it serves 6 people but my husband and i wipe out a pound of this shrimp so i'm saying it serves two. Prep time includes marinating time.
Steps
Devein shrimp by making a shallow cut lengthwise along the outside curve.
Remove sand vein.
Press each shrimp flat into a butterfly shape.
Mix remaining ingredients , except 1 / 2 half of the lemon slices , and pour over shrimp.
Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Remove shrimp and reserve marinade.
Arrange shrimp in a lightly greased hinged wire grill basket.
Grill 4 inches from hot coals for about 6-10 minutes , turning basket and brushing shrimp 2-3 times with reserved marinade , until shrimp is pink.
Garnish with remaining lemon slices.
