Rosemary shrimp ala Spiceguy

Posted in : Recipes, Seafood on January 9, 2004 by : SpiceGuy

You’ll need some big shrimp, shelled and deveined.
A couple straight branches of fresh rosemary with most of the leaves removed.
A jar of preminced garlic.
Olive oil.
And a hot barbeque…

Lay about five shrimp on their sides, front-to-back on your work surface. Trim the large end of the rosemary branch to make it sharp.
Place your hand flatly on top of the shrimp and skewer through them, starting with the head end first.
Then skewer through the tail end with the other branch. When you’ve done this, push the shrimp together so they’re touching.
Now take as much of the minced garlic as you want(and then some more), and spread it all over the shrimp. Some will fall off, so use plenty.
Now drizzle with olive oil. This is where you may want to use some salt and pepper. Now place on your hot grill for no more than 3 or 4 min. per side. This is like food of the gods…
