Texas Barbecued Lemon Shrimp
CATEGORIES
INGREDIENTS
- 3 pounds raw, unpeeled large shrimp 1/2 cup lemon or lime juice
- 1/4 cup Italian salad dressing
- 1/4 cup light soy sauce
- 1/4 cup water or white wine
- 4 to 6 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 4 tablespoons minced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, mashed
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
DIRECTIONS
- Peel and devein shrimp, string them on skewers, and place them in a shallow glass or ceramic dish. Dump everything else into a container with a lid and shake. Pour half the mix over the shrimp and refrigerate for at least a half a day.
- Turn the shrimp once or twice. We usually do this early in the morning. Some marinate shrimp first and then skewer them. We find it's easier to turn skewered shrimp.
- Get the grill hot and cook six inches from moderate coals for three to five minutes a side. Baste with reserved marinade.
