Our Backyard Grilled Garlic-Butter Shrimp
Shell-on shrimp soak up parsley and olive oil before hitting a hot grill, picking up a light char and smoky aroma. They’re then tossed in a nutty browned-butter and garlic sauce that coats each juicy bite. Our Backyard Grilled Garlic-Butter Shrimp is ideal for warm-evening dinners or a laid-back cookout centerpiece.

Grill the skewers until the shrimp are pink and firm, about 3 minutes per side. Meanwhile, set the grill pan on the grate and melt and simmer the butter-parsley mixture until the butter is just golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
