Jamaican Jerk Shrimp Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds of large or jumbo shrimp
- 3 tablespoons jerk seasoning (commercial brand or make your own)
- 4 tablespoons Olive Oil
- Mix the shrimp, jerk seasoning, and olive oil together. Set aside to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- While the shrimp is marinating, make the mango mint salsa and sour cream dip.
- Traditionally, jerk recipes are cooked over pimento wood. If this isn't available to you, a gas grill or charcoal barbecue will do just fine.
- After the shrimp has marinated, light the grill. While the grill is warming up, place the shrimp on skewers. Soak wooden skewers before using them.
- If you desire, you can place any fruit or vegetable you like on the skewers between the shrimps. I chose cherry tomatoes fresh from my garden. But, you can use chunks of pineapple, mango, onions, peppers, etc.
- When the skewers are ready, grill the shrimp over a medium flame or use indirect heat on a charcoal grill if necessary. Shrimp cooks quickly. You will need only a few minutes per side so don't leave the grill unattended. Overcooked shrimp turns rubbery.
- The shrimp will be pink when done.
