Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
Pat the 'Shrimp' thoroughly dry with paper towels.
In a medium bowl, combine all 'Garlic Butter Sauce' ingredients: melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Whisk well to combine.
Add the dried 'Shrimp' to the 'Garlic Butter Sauce' and toss gently to ensure all shrimp are evenly coated.
Thread the shrimp onto the skewers, typically 4-5 shrimp per skewer, ensuring they are not too crowded.
Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat. If grilling, lightly oil the grates.
Grill or broil the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque and are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook.
Serve immediately with any extra 'Garlic Butter Sauce' on the side for dipping, if desired.
