I have tried a couple new shrimp recipes and have not been that great. I have a couple that I really like but want to add something new. Hit me with your favorite grilled shrimp!
 
Jumbo crab meat stuffed shrimp. Sorry I don't have a recipe handy, but it's pretty simple and very good.

I really like brushing them with Frank's sweet chilli sauce while on a hot grill. Then serve over white rice. I love that stuff

For a low carb version you could use G.Hughes sugar free and then serve over cauliflower rice with some cilantro and lime.

For me any way you cook shrimp. I’m good with it!
We have a bunch of shrimp recipes, but my favorite is blackened shrimp over grits.

Depending on how many shrimp you want to skewer, 6 jalapeños seeded and thrown into a food processor with fresh garlic lemon juice, pulverize it, marinade 30 minutes leave as much on them as you can when you put them on the grill, oh and salt/ pepper to your taste

Thanks. I have several to try. I will share one of mine from Bobby Flay

Grilled Shrimp Skewers with Cilantro-Mint Chutney
Shrimp:
2 tablespoons red chile powder, such as ancho or New Mexican red
2 tablespoons garam marsala
2 tablespoons canola oil
Juice of 2 lemons
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound large shrimp (21/24), shelled, deveined, tails left on and patted dry

Cilantro-Mint Chutney:
1 cup tightly packed fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup tightly packed fresh mint leaves
4 scallions, chopped
1 Thai chile, finely minced
Zest of 1 lime
1 to 2 tablespoons honey
1 to 2 tablespoons canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

or the shrimp: Whisk together the chile powder, garam marsala, canola oil, lemon juice in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat in the mixture. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

Prepare a charcoal grill for direct grilling, high heat.

For the chutney: Combine the cilantro, mint, scallions, chile, 1 tablespoon each honey and canola oil, lime zest, and some salt and pepper in a food processor. Process to make a smooth paste. Taste; add honey, if desired, or more oil to make a sauce that will cling to the shrimp.

Thread 2 skewers through 3 shrimp so that the shrimp lay flat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes per side.

Remove the shrimp to a platter and serve with the cilantro-mint chutney.

Grind the Oregano, Thyme, Celery Flake and Seed. Mix all and store in air tight container, up to 3 months...

Creamy Cheese Grits

2cups Whole Milk
2cups Water or Stock
1/2cup Heavy Cream
1tsp Kosher Salt
1cup Corn meal
1/2tsp Black Pepper
4Tbs Butter
4oz Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese or Gruyere

Place the milk, water, cream and salt into a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once the milk mixture comes to a boil, gradually add the cornmeal while continually whisking. Once all of the cornmeal has been incorporated, decrease the heat to low and cover. Remove lid and whisk frequently, every 3 to 4 minutes, to prevent grits from sticking or forming lumps; make sure to get into corners of pot when whisking. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes or until mixture is creamy.

Remove from the heat, add the pepper and butter, and whisk to combine. Once the butter is melted, gradually whisk in the cheese a little at a time. Serve immediately!
