This free barbecue shrimp recipe will make Spanish Tapas a reality in your hometown backyard barbecue. In fact there’s two recipes for the price of one and they both taste awesome!
I’ve got two different “drizzles” so let’s go through how to make each of them and you can take your pick.
Get your uncooked shrimp tails (or tiger prawns) out of the freezer, put your wooden skewers on to soak and lets get cooking.
Ingredients:-
For the “sizzle drizzle”
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 red chili
2 cloves chopped garlic
pinch of paprika
sprinkle of salt
Fry up the garlic and chili in the olive oil for couple of minutes until fragrant, add the pinch of paprika and sizzle for a further minute then drizzle over your cooked shrimps. Sprinkle on a little salt to finish.
OR
Limo Fino
4 limes (put one to one side)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves chopped garlic
splash of dry sherry
Fry up the garlic in the olive oil for a couple of minutes, add the juice of three limes and the dry sherry and some of the lime zest. Chop your final lime into wedges for garnish and what are you waiting for? – we’re done.
Method:-
For the uncooked shrimps or prawns. Remove the heads and peel – remember it’s quite trendy to leave the last piece of tail shell on. Skewer them up, sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill until pink (2-3 mins each side on hot BBQ coals).
For those reading this in Manchester England – now you really know a good drizzle not just the usual rain!
