Grilled Shrimp with Asparagus Kebabs

You’ll need:

  • Large cleaned shrimp with the tails left on. 2 shrimp per kebab.
  • Wooden skewers soaked in water.
  • Asparagus cut into 1″ pieces. 2-3 per kebab
  • Fresh basil 1 chopped leaf for every 2 shrimp
  • Extra virgin olive oil 1/4 cup for every 10 shrimp
  • 1 tbs fresh squeezed lemon juice for every 10 shrimp
  • 2 minced garlic cloves for every 10 shrimp 
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes for every 20 shrimp (optional)

Directions:

  1. Place all the ingredients (not the skewer sticks) into a large zip plastic bag remove as much air as possible, shake to mix the marinade and place in the fridge for 1 hour.
  2. Skewer the ingredients.
  3. Grill the kebabs on a outdoor grill or on a grill pan on your stove. These are going to cook pretty quickly a couple minutes on each side, you just need to be careful not to over cook them as they will be tough.
  4. Serve with some lemon wedges.
