Really easy Grilled Herb Shrimp.
2 pounds shrimp (16-20 count), peeled, deveined, but leave tails on. I used precooked 16 jumbo shrimps
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small or 1/2 large onion, minced
1/4 cup fresh parsley minced ( i only had dried, so i used about 2 Tbsp)
1/4 cup fresh basil, minced
2 Tbsp mustard
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Pinch Red pepper flakes
1/4 cup olive oil
1 lemon juiced or 2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp sugar
Mix all ingredients together and toss to coat shrimp. Allow to marinate at room temperature for one hour or in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Prepare Grill, Thread shrimp on skewers. Grill for about 2 mins on each side.
do you have a deep fryer? coconut shrimp is one of my favs!
love this, and instead of grilling, you could broil it. i bet you could forget skewers and also saute it

i didn't have red pepper flakes because no one other than me likes spicy, so I omitted it, and i over pulsed all the minced ingredients in an overzealous attempt to mince quickly by using the food processor, but this was still delicious! And I'd make it again the same way.

Enjoy!
I have something that I made up one night and everyone loves it.
Shrimp with Orzo Pasta
I have no measurements though sorry I sort of just do it.
Orzo Pasta
Spinach (I use frozen spinach)
Pesto Sauce
Shrimp (cooked)
Garlic Powder
Parmesan
i basically make the shrimp and mix with a little pesto while hot and then add that and the spinach to the cooked orzo pasta and then add more pesto and spices to taste. I have been known to add feta cheese also.
I made this once for camping....it is good cold or hot
