Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a spacious glass or ceramic bowl, whisk together the canola oil, hot pepper sauce, crushed garlic, chili sauce, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and dried oregano until thoroughly combined. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Gently introduce the shrimp to the marinade, ensuring each piece is generously coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the flavors to meld in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. (Marinating time: 60 minutes)

03

Step

Prepare an outdoor grill by preheating it to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

04

Step

Remove the shrimp from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade to ensure food safety. Thread approximately 4 shrimp onto each skewer, arranging them neatly. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

05

Step

Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook until the shrimp turn pink on the outside and are no longer translucent in the center, approximately 3 minutes per side. (Cooking time: 6 minutes)

For an enhanced flavor profile, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the marinade.
Ensure the grill is adequately preheated to achieve a perfect sear on the shrimp.
Serve the BBQ shrimp hot off the grill, accompanied by a side of fluffy rice or your favorite grilled vegetables.
