Ingredients

• 1 lb Jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp Fresh thyme, finely chopped
• 1 tsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
• 4 pcs Lemon wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, rosemary, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined to create a smooth herb garlic butter.

Step 2

2. Rinse the peeled and deveined shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 3

3. Place shrimp in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Add the garlic herb butter mixture to the shrimp, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 4

4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.

Step 5

5. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers, leaving a little space between each shrimp to ensure even cooking.

Step 6

6. Place the shrimp skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and have light grill marks.

Step 7

7. Remove the shrimp from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
