Time 14m

Yield 12 shrimp, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 jumbo shrimp, shelled and deveined (tails intact.)
1/4 cup butter
1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
2 tablespoons sherry wine
1 teaspoon orange zest
2 scallions, tops and white, minced
1 teaspoon gingerroot, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Soak 12 long wooded skewers in water for 30 minutes.
  • Push skewers through shrimp lengthwise from top to tail, 1 shrimp per skewer.
  • Combine all other ingredients in saucepan and cook over low to medium heat, stirring, until butter is completely melted.
  • Dip skewered shrimp in orange sauce and position on oiled grill rack about 4 inches above the coals.
  • Baste liberally with sauce and grill for 2 minutes.
  • Turn shrimp over and baste again, cooking for another 2 minutes.
  • Smaller shrimp will be done at this point, but continue basting and turning larger shrimp until they are pink and cooked through.
  • Remove from heat immediately when done, as they will get tough if overcooked.
  • Use any remaining sauce for a dip for shrimp.
