Butterfly BBQ Shrimp Recipe - Seafood News - Coupon Code

We have been "enjoying" unseasonally "wet & chilly" weather this late spring. As of yesterday, we went 271 days with the thermomitor under 75F! It must be "global warming"!

We have two shipping weeks until the 4th of July weekend. One of the best ways to spend this day is with food, family & friends. For many years, we have had a "progressive party" starting with brunch at one home, a late lunch at another and dinner at a third. After dinner, we would go and watch the fireworks on Neptune Beach. You can also have your procressive party all at one location, with the seafood preparation being a group effort!

Check out our Recipe Section for 4th of July Seafood Ideas!

Butterfly BBQ Shrimp

This is a fun recipe to do on the grill, but can be broiled as well. The improved flavor and moisture comes from using the shrimp's shell to help hold the garlic/oil/butter combination as well as imparting the flavors of the shrimp shell and BBQ Smoke into the shrimp.


Ingredients:
1-2lbs Wild Ocean Seafoods Wild Gulf Shrimp
4-5 Cloves of Garlic Minced
2-3 Tbsp Oils of Aloha Pele's Fire (Chili Infused) or Kuai Italian Herb Macadamia Oil
1/2 Stick Unsalted Butter
Salt & Pepper to taste
Grill Pan (Optional but very handy)
Basting Brush

Prep: (Mis en Place)
Place the thawed shrimp legs side down on a cutting board.
Using a sharp knife, cut thru the upper shell in a rocking motion starting at the tail.
Gently cut thru the shrimp to the bottom shell, but DO NOT cut THRU the bottom shell.
Remove the vein, place shrimp in cold salted water until use. (20 Minutes)
Mince the Garlic and add to a bowl
Combine with Macadamia Oil & Unsalted Butter - Microwave for 20 seconds and mix well
Pre-Heat BBQ
Remove & Rinse Shrimp from Salted Water Bath, pat dry.
On a plate or shallow baking pan, arrange the Shrimp meat side up.
Using a basting brush, coat each shrimp with Butter/Macadamia Oil/Garlic Mix

Cooking:
Place the shrimp into a Grill Pan and put on BBQ on Medium
Baste shrimp again after 3 Minutes
Remove Shrimp when firm
Baste with remainder of marinade & serve

Plating:
Place Shrimp on plate, serve with Seafood Forks & Side Dish(s)

Enjoy!
