Grilled Breaded Shrimp skewers

Prep time: 30 min.
Cook time 5 min.

Ingredients
2 lbs large shrimp ( shelled & de-veined)
1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup unflavored bred crumbs
2 cloves garlic chopped very fine
about 2 tsp. fresh parsley chopped very fine
salt black pepper to taste

In a large bowl combine all ingredients. Turn to coat shrimp thoroughly. Let sit in the mixture for about 30 minutes at room temperature.

In the meantime soak skewers in water for about 10 minutes.

Making sure the shrimp is thoroughly coated, curl them tightly and skewer them so the skewer passes through each shrimp 3 times (this will prevent them from spinning when turning on the grill.) NOTE: you can top shrimp with extra breading after skewered pressing it down onto the shrimp.

Heat the grill on high. Place the shrimp over high heat and cook the first side about 2 minutes, until golden brown. Turn over and cook second side for about the same time, Again until golden brown. NOTE: This can be done under the broiler in your oven as well.

Once done, serve HOT!!!
This is great for an appetizer at BBQ's and indoor parties as well.

Hope you enjoy.
