    Recipe Introduction


    Serve as an appetizer or main dish.

    List of Ingredients




    1/4 C finely chopped garlic, mashed to a paste with 1 t coarse salt
    2 T minced fresh rosemary leaves plus sprigs for garnish
    3 T olive oil plus oil for brushing shrimp
    16 jumbo shrimp (about 10 per pound)
    four 12" bamboo skewers
    lemon wedges as an accompaniment

    Recipe



    In a large bowl stir together garlic, minced rosemary, and 3 T. oil; add shrimp. Marinate shrimp, covered and chilled, at least 4 hours or overnight.
    In a shallow dish soak skewers in water to cover 30 minutes and prepare grill.
    To grill, thread 4 shrimp on each skewer and brush with additional oil. Grill shrimp on an oiled rack set about 5 inches over glowing coals for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until just cooked through.
    Alternatively, brush shrimp with additional oil and grill in a hot, covered, well seasoned, ridged grill pan over moderately high heat 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Garnish shrimp with rosemary sprigs and serve with lemon wedges.
    (Serves 4)
