. Seasoned and CRISPY on the outside, juicy on the inside, drizzled with a simple-yet-incredible lemon butter sauce, you'll love the little crispy little golden garlic bits in the sauce! This is a recipe made for the BBQ, but works great on the stove too
Ingredients
LEMON GARLIC BUTTER:90g / 6 tbsp butter , unsalted
1/4 tsp salt
3 tsp garlic , very finely chopped (do not use mincer, Note 1)
1.5 tbsp lemon juice , plus more to taste
SHRIMP/PRAWNS:
500g/ 1 lb large shrimp / prawns , raw, peeled and deveined (Note 2)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp smoked paprika (plain or sweet ok too)
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp lemon juice (skip if using stove)
2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
SERVING (OPTIONAL):
1 lemon , halved, grilled if desired
Lemon wedges or slices
2 tbsp finely chopped parsley
Instructions
PREPARATION:Brush BBQ grills with oil, then preheat on high until very hot.
If shrimp are small and might fall through grills, skewer them (use 2 skewers, Note 3)
MAKE SAUCE:
Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium high heat.
Add garlic and salt. Stir until garlic is LIGHT golden brown, then immediately remove from stove (residual heat will make garlic golden & crispy).
Stir through lemon.
SHRIMP/PRAWNS (STOVE: NOTE 4):
Pat shrimp dry with paper towels (to ensure crispiness!)
Just prior to cooking, place in bowl, sprinkle/drizzle over remaining ingredients. Toss gently to coat.
Working quickly, place shrimp on BBQ and cook each side for 2 minutes until golden and crusty.
Immediately remove shrimp onto serving plate.
SERVING:
Drizzle over all the Lemon Garlic Butter, sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately with fresh lemon.
Crusty bread to mop up the crazy delish butter on the plate is essential
