Honey Grilled Shrimp

Grilled, Main Entree, Seafood

Ingredients

For the marinade

½ teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 Teaspoon minced garlic

¼ tablespoon ground black pepper

1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons dry white wine

2 tablespoons Italian-style salad dressing

1 pound large uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined


For the Glaze

¼ cup honey

¼ cup butter, melted

1 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Directions

In a large bowl, mix together garlic, black pepper, 1/4 cup Worcestershire, wine, and dressing; add shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Preheat the grill to high heat. Thread shrimp onto skewers. Discard marinade.

In a small bowl, stir together honey, melted butter, and remaining 1 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce. Set aside for basting.

Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until opaque. Baste occasionally with the honey-butter sauce while grilling.

Notes

These were good. Jill liked them. I served them over long grain rice.

I marinated chunks of bell peppers with the shrimp and alternated the peppers on the skewers. The basting sauce will flame up while basting so use a long brush and be careful.

This recipe reflects reducing the Worcestershire sauce from the original and adding minced garlic.
