Enjoy a delightful twist on grilled shrimp with this zesty lemon garlic marinade, perfect for summer gatherings.
Combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, diced onion, paprika, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the garlic is finely minced to evenly distribute its flavor in the marinade.
Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
For deeper flavor, marinate the shrimp overnight.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the shrimp onto skewers.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water beforehand to prevent burning.
Grill the shrimp for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are opaque and cooked through.
Avoid overcooking the shrimp as they can become rubbery.
Serve the grilled shrimp hot with your choice of sides and enjoy.
Garnish with fresh parsley or a wedge of lemon for added presentation.
