Really great Shrimp! We halved the recipe, but otherwise didn't change a thing. Will definitely make again!

This is becoming a family favorite. I have made it three times (under the broiler works fine if you don't have a grill), and it gets raves. The flavors are just right. And no, that's not too much garlic. The only time-consuming part is deveining the shrimp.

Best shrimp on the grill I have ever made! I served with Recipe # 125120-lemon spaghetti and had grilled asparagus on the side. The intense garlic flavor really complimented the lemony flavor of the pasta. Thanks for posting!

This was the second time I made this. It was by request that I made this again and it has been determined this is the best way to eat shrimp, and that is from die hard fried shrimp eaters. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this one.
