Cooking Instructions

In a large bowl, toss the Large Shrimp (1.5 lb) with Olive Oil (2 Tbsp) , Kosher Salt (1 tsp) , and Ground Black Pepper (as needed) . Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Combine the Scallions (3 stalks) and Red Wine Vinegar (4 Tbsp) in a 2-cup glass measuring cup or medium bowl. Let the scallions sit in the vinegar for 15 minutes.

Add the Fresh Parsley (3/4 cup) , Fresh Mint (1/2 cup) , Garlic (1 clove) , Capers (4 tsp) , and Kosher Salt (as needed) and stir to combine. Add Olive Oil (1/2 cup) (1/2 cup plus 1 Tbsp). Mix well and set aside.

Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals, or set a gas grill to medium-high heat, then brush the grilling rack with oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Skewer the shrimp.

Grill the shrimp for 1-1/2 minutes on each side, and serve immediately with the Scallion Salsa Verde. Serve and enjoy!
