Ingredients

  • 1 lb large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes prior to grilling to prevent them from burning.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped dill, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the bowl and toss until completely coated. Let marinate for 15-20 minutes (do not marinate much longer, or the lemon juice will begin to cook the shrimp).
  4. Preheat your grill or an indoor grill pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Thread the marinated shrimp onto the prepared skewers.
  6. Grill the skewers for 2 to 3 minutes per side, just until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and slightly charred.
  7. Remove from the grill and serve immediately, garnished with extra fresh dill and lemon wedges if desired.
