Nothing beats this Grilled Garlic and Herb Shrimp! Oh, man, you have got to give this one a try! Every bite is as if the ocean lives in your mouth! Taste the freshness of the shrimp with the delicious garlic and herbs! Make sure to serve these bad boys immediately. They taste best when hot! Serve them over rice or pasta, and you have yourself a meal to remember! By the way, feel free to make this recipe a spicy version. Just simply add chilli powder to the marinade. I highly recommend it! Anyway, have a great one, friends. I hope you are all well today. Enjoy!
