Calories: 237cal
Ingredients
- 1 pound raw large shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. TIP - Elevating the shrimp on a wire rack over a baking sheet improves the air circulation, which in turn, cooks the shrimp evenly.
- In a medium bowl, add all seasonings and olive oil, whisk until well combined.1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic salt, 3 Tablespoons olive oil
- Place shrimp in a large mixing bowl. Pour seasoning mixture on top.1 pound raw large shrimp
- Using gloved hands, toss and coat the shrimp with the seasoning mixture.
- Place seasoned shrimp on wire rack over prepared pan.
- Broil for 5-7 minutes, or until shrimp has curled up and turned opaque.
Notes
- You can use frozen shrimp for this recipe, just be sure to thaw it first and pat it dry with paper towels.
- We like grilling shrimp or tiger shrimp for this recipe, but any large or extra large shrimp will work.
- Shrimp does not take long to cook, which also means it can easily be overcooked. The shrimp will curl and turn opaque with pink and red hues when it is finished cooking. Overcooked shrimp tend to turn a whiteish grey and are rubbery in texture.
