2 Make the remoulade sauce by mixing the ingredients together in a small bowl. Cover and chill this sauce until you are ready to use it.
3 Prepare the shrimp seasoning by mixing the spices together in a small bowl.
4 Remove the shell from the shrimp. Keep the last segment of the shell and the tail. Remove the black vein that runs down the back of the shrimp. Stick a skewer through the middle of each shrimp. Push them together on the skewer so that they are "spooning" each other.
5 Squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the cuddling shrimp.
6 Brush melted butter generously over the top of the shrimp.
7 Sprinkle a bit of the seasoning on next. Don't use a heavy coating of seasoning.
8 Place the shrimp onto your hot grill with the seasoning side down. Brush some more butter of the other side of the shrimp followed by another light sprinkle of seasoning.
9 After 3 minutes or so the face-down side of the shrimp should be browned and showing some light charring. Flip the shrimp over and grill for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until browned on the other side.
10 Remove the shrimp from the grill and slide them off the skewers onto a plate. Sprinkle with a pinch of fresh parsley. Serve with remoulade sauce. ? Have a question about this recipe?
