Grilled Garlic Jumbo Shrimp And Cherry Tomato Skewers - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 lbs large tiger shrimp, shelled and deveined
15 cherry tomatoes
8 large garlic cloves (sliced into thirds, use only the middle piece)
1 tablespoon fresh oregano (can use 1/2 teaspoon dried)
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes (if you like lots of spice use more)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper
6 -8 wooden skewers (you might use more or less skewers)
Preparation
-
In a large glass bowl, combine ALL ingredients, including the garlic slices, but not the tomatoes.
Cover and marinade for about 5 hours.
Make certain that you soak the wooden skewers for a minumum of 30 minutes before you thread the shrimp on them.
Place one shrimp on the skewer sideways so they will not slip, then a slice of garlic, then a cherry tomato, repeat with shrimp, garlic and then a tomato.
Repeat with the remaining skewers.
Brush the tomatoes with olive oil.
Season all with salt and pepper.
Grill turning occasionally for about 5 minutes or until they are pink in colour.
