Ingredients:
- 1 lb Lombardi’s Fresh Shrimp (peeled and deveined – Key West Pink Shrimp or any other variety you love)
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tbsp parsley (chopped)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 1 baguette (sliced in half lengthwise)
- ½ cup butter (softened)
- 2 tbsp garlic (minced)
- 1 tsp parsley (for garnish)
Preparation:
- Marinate the Shrimp: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Add Lombardi’s fresh shrimp to the bowl, toss to coat, and let marinate in the refrigerator for 15–30 minutes.
- Prepare the Garlic Bread: Mix softened butter with minced garlic and a pinch of parsley. Spread generously on the cut sides of the baguette.
- Grill the Shrimp: Preheat your grill to medium heat. If you like, skewer the shrimp for easy handling. Grill for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and opaque.
- Grill the Bread: Place the garlic bread, cut-side down, on the grill for 2–3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Plate the shrimp alongside slices of warm, grilled garlic bread. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges for an added burst of flavor.
