Ingredients

  • 500 grams large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 8 wooden skewers, soaked in water

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, ground black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Thread the marinated shrimp onto the soaked wooden skewers, about 4-5 shrimp per skewer.

  5. 5

    Grill the skewers for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.

  6. 6

    After grilling, brush the shrimp skewers with any remaining marinade and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

  7. 7

    Serve hot with rice or a fresh salad.
