BBQ Marinated Shrimp
A little heat, super flavorful marinade to amp up your bbq shrimp, great for any time you need a little app for your BBQ
Ingredients
- 1 cup Olive oil
- ΒΌ cup fresh parsley chopped
- 1 lemon juiced
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha hot sauce you can use whatever hot sauce you like
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 pounds Large Shrimp peeled, deveined with tail on
Instructions
- In a large bowl or zip loc baggie, add everything except the shrimp and mix well. Add the shrimp and mix until all the shrimp are incorporated into the marinade. Let sit for a minimum of 2 hours up to 24 hours. I would not go beyond the 24 hour mark, there is enough fresh lemon which is an acid and will start to cook the shrimp.
- Pre-heat you BBQ grill and then skewer each piece of shrimp. It doesn't take long for shrimp to cook so get yourself ready with a plate or platter and friends and family to share. Depending on hot your grill is, it could be 2-4 minutes per side and that's it. You want them pink and still juicy.
