Spiced BBQ’d Shrimp

INGREDIENTS

   2 pounds LARGE shrimp, uncooked, pull the skin/tails off 

   1 cup olive oil

   1 lemon, juiced

   2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce

   3 cloves garlic, minced

   1 tablespoon tomato paste (I just use ketchup)

   2 teaspoons dried oregano

   1 teaspoon salt

   1 teaspoon ground black pepper

   1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (original called for parsley)

   "dash" of Dave's Insanity super-hot sauce (be careful!)

      Add more Dave's and/or Chili Powder if you like very spicy

   

DIRECTIONS

   In a large bowl, mix together all of the ingredients except the shrimp.

   Let sit overnight at room temperature in a tupperware container, shaking 

   occasionally as the ingredients settle. This should really "infuse" the

   oil with flavor. Dip each shrimp in the marinade to fully coat, and then

   put all of the shrimp and marinade in a container and put in the fridge

   for several hours, flipping occasionally to distribute marinade.

   Or just do all the above at once. 

   While preheating your bbq grill, skewer shrimp. Put on the grill for a

   few minutes, flipping once. You should not have to brush w/marinade.

   Serve over rice, pasta, or as-is.
