Grilled Garlic Butter Shrimp with Garlic Bread

Preparation

• • Preheat the grill, setting the burners to high. Oil the grate.

• Garlic Butter

  • Meanwhile, in a small pot over medium heat, melt the butter with the garlic. Off the heat, add the herbs. Add the cayenne and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

• Shrimp and Garlic Bread

  • If desired, thread the shrimp onto skewers for easier barbecuing. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Brush with the oil.
  • Cut the baguette into slices without going all the way through to the bottom (hasselback-style). Brush with the garlic butter. Wrap the bread in foil. Cook on the barbecue for 5 minutes. Keep warm.
  • Place the lemon halves, cut side down, on the grill and cook for 3 minutes. Grill the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove from the heat. With a pastry brush, coat the shrimp with the garlic butter, to taste.
  • Arrange the shrimp in a serving dish. Drizzle with the juice of the grilled lemon and serve with garlic bread..
