Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 lemon (juiced)
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the grill to 350 degrees F and brush the grill grates with oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking.
- Step 2: Ensure the shrimp is fully thawed. Place the shrimp in a large bowl.
- Step 3: Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon dried basil. Toss until evenly coated.
- Step 4: Place the shrimp directly on the grill grates and cook for 1-2 minutes until they turn bright pink and are cooked through.
- Step 5: Remove the shrimp to a plate and top with 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
Notes
If using smaller shrimp, cook them in a cast iron skillet on the grill to prevent them from falling through the grates. Fresh lemon juice is recommended for the best flavor.
