The reviews for this grilled shrimp recipe speak for themselves; this recipe is so delicious!
Juicy shrimp are tossed in a simple marinade, grilled until tender, and drizzled wiht garlid butter for serving.
I use parsley but if you have other fresh herbs like basil or cilantro, they also taste great in the garlic butter.
If using wooden skewers, I recommend soaking them to prevent them from catching fire on the grill. Place them in a shallow pan (I use a 9×13 dish) and soak them while the shrimp marinates.
If you frequently make skewers, I recommend investing in stainless steel skewers. While I love the dollar store for many items, I find that the cheaper skewers rust.

In a small bowl, combine butter, garlic, and parsley. Set aside.
In a glass bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, parsley, tomato paste, basil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to 1 hour.
Preheat the grill to medium heat (375°F).
Thread the shrimp onto skewers and grill for 2-3 minutes per side or just until the shrimp are opaque. Remove from skewers and place in a serving bowl.
If needed, warm the garlic butter in the microwave for a few seconds to melt. Drizzle the garlic butter over the shrimp and serve warm with lemon wedges if desired.
