Introduction

An absolute "must" have at your next outdoor cookout! The recipe calls for 6 tbsp of olive oil - 3 of those go into the marinade which "most" of it gets thrown away, so for calculation purposes I put 4 tbsp in.

    3 medium garlic cloves crushed through a press

    *skewers for grilling

Directions

Whisk together mustard, 1 tbsp on lemon juice, 3 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp sugar, 1/4 tsp salt and pepper in a small bowl and set aside

Whisk together remaining ingredients and put in a ziploc bag, add shrimp and toss to coat. Press out air and seal. Place in the fridge for 30 min, flipping bag about half way through.

Remove shrimp from bag and allow excess marinade to drip off. Place @8 shrimp per skewer (soak bamboo ones in water to prevent burning on grill prior to skewering shrimp) Grill over med heat until done and allow to rest 5 min after removing from grill.
