Title: Easy Peezy Shrimp Marinade
Post by: RG on January 31, 2016, 10:56:31 AM
I used this concoction on some Shrimp last night and it was excellent!

Shrimp Marinade

1/3 Cup Olive Oil

3 Garlic Cloves Chopped Fine

1/4 Cup Heinz (or similar) Chili Sauce*

2 Tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar

2 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Basil (or 1 Tablespoon dried basil which is what I had on hand)

1/2 Teaspoon Salt

1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

 

*Note that the Chili Sauce is NOT Sriracha!! It is more like a slightly kicked up spicy ketchup. Be sure that you use this and not Sriracha. Ketchup or Tomato Sauce can be used in its place.

 

Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and add up to 2 pounds of RAW shrimp, peeled and deveined of course.

Coat the shrimp well and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Grill as you are accustomed to, skewers work well. Do NOT overcook as they will be rubbery, serve and eat while they're hot, once they go cold they suck!
