Ingredients
1 pound large shrimp
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cupfresh cilantro, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper, adjust to spice preference
Instructions
Add the olive oil, herbs, and spices to a small mixing bowl and whisk together.
Place the shrimp in a bowl and pour 3/4 of the marinade on top of the shrimp. Mix together gently to coat the shrimp evenly.
Cover the bowl and marinate the shrimp for 30 minutes to an hour.
Thread the shrimp on the skewers and make sure to get all the good garlic and herbs from the bowl and spread on to the shrimp.
Heat a grill on medium high heat (around 400°F).
Once the grill is hot, arrange the shrimp skewers on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they turn pink and opaque.
Remove the shrimp skewers to a plate and spoon the remaining marinade on top before serving.
