Ingredients

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 cloves garlic, minced
⅓ cup olive oil
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼-½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley or basil
lemon wedges

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, crushed red pepper, and Worcestershire Sauce. Add the shrimp to the same bowl and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to 1 hour.
Thread them on wooden or metal skewers to prevent them from falling through the grill grate.
Preheat the grill to 450 degrees. Grill for 2 minutes on each side or until they turn light pink on the outside and opaque or white on the inside.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with fresh lemon wedges.
