Method 6
- 01
Thaw the shrimp , if frozen.
- 02
Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (375 to 450 degrees). Soak the wooden skewers (at least 20 minutes).
- 03
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel or clean towel. Place it in a bowl and add the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, celery salt and kosher salt . Mix with your hands to combine.
- 04
Thread the shrimp onto the skewers, alternating direction of the tails and making the shrimp just touch each other (so they don’t spin when flipping the skewers).
- 05
Place skewers directly on the grill and grill 1 to 2 minutes per side, until bright pink and cooked through.
- 06
Remove from the grill and squeeze on fresh lemon juice from the lemon wedges. Top with finely chopped parsley if desired.
