shrimp on the barbie

This recipe was adapted from several including our own, All Recipes, and a host of others.  Our shrimp comes wrapped in newspaper.

Ingredients:

- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 2 cloves garlic, pressed
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1lb shrimp, peeled and deveined

1.  In a 1 gallon plastic food storage bag, add the olive oil and the shrimp.  Toss the shrimp to coat in olive oil.
2.  Combine the paprika, garlic powder, pressed garlic, black pepper and Italian seasoning in a bowl and mix well.  It will look like this.

4.  Place the shrimp into your refrigerator and allow to marinate for 3-4 hours.
5.  Skewer the shrimp and when the grill is ready, place the shrimp on the grill. Cook the shrimp for 6-7 minutes, turning once.

Remove the shrimp from the grill and serve immediately.  I never have pictures of the done product.  It's too good to sit around taking pictures.  

Cheers!
