A delightful recipe for grilled shrimp infused with aromatic garlic and herbs, perfect for a summer meal.
Preheat your grill to high heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped shallot, cumin, and smoked paprika.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the marinade.
Let the shrimp marinate for at least 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
Place the shrimp on a grill rack and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until pink and cooked through.
Avoid overcooking the shrimp to keep them tender and juicy.
Remove the shrimp from the grill and garnish with chopped cilantro and parsley.
Add the herbs just before serving for a fresh burst of flavor.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the shrimp and serve immediately.
Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a light salad for a complete meal.
