  • 1.5 sticks butter
  • 1/2 bottle of olive oil (Mazola pure or similar)
  • Rosemary to taste (a few leaves)
  • Oregano to taste (a few leaves)

  • Garlic salt  (at least a teaspoon)
  • 2 lemons
  • Skewers
  • Charcoal grill, wood fire grill, etc.

Instructions:

  1. Peel Shrimp
  2. Melt butter over heat
  3. Mix butter in a medium dish with oil, rosemary, oregano, basil, and
    garlic salt.
  4. Squeeze juice from lemons and mix in with ingredients from step 3.
  5. Marinade shrimp in lemon/oil/butter/herb mix for 20+ minutes (refrigerate if possible)
