PREP: 10 minutes ; COOK: 6 minutes ; TOTAL: 16 minutes
SERVINGS: 4

1 pound shrimp peeled and deveined use jumbo, 15-18 count shrimp to cook directly on the grill without skewers; if using smaller shrimp, skewer them cook for less time
1 batch Shrimp Marinade or Grilled Shrimp Seasoning
Canola oil for grilling

Marinade the shrimp for 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours); if using the seasoning, you can season and cook right away. If using wood skewers, soak them for at least 30 minutes (smaller shrimp will need skewers; larger shrimp can cook directly on the grates).
Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium high heat (425°F to 450°F). If using smaller shrimp, thread them on metal skewers or wooden skewers that have been soaked in water for at least 30 minutes.
Brush the grill or grill pan with canola oil. Grill the shrimp, just until pink and opaque, about 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning once half way through (discard the extra marinade). Serve immediately.

TO BROIL: To cook the shrimp in the oven, preheat the broiler. Line a sheet pan with foil and coat with nonstick spray. Broil the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip them and broil the other side for 2 to 3 minutes more, or until opaque pink.
TO STORE: Grilled shrimp is best enjoyed immediately, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
TO REHEAT: Warm leftover grilled shrimp in a skillet on the stovetop over medium-low heat or in the microwave.
TO FREEZE: Transfer the grilled shrimp to an airtight freezer-safe storage container and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating according to the instructions above.
