Grilled Rosemary Shrimp Skewers

All natural Western Apple BBQ chips infuse a mild sweet flavor in this recipe for Grilled Rosemary Shrimp Skewers recipe


Ingredients:

1 bunch Italian parsley leaves
1 bunch basil leaves
½ TSP kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
½ cup bread crumbs
¼ cup plus 2 TBSP extra-virgin olive oil
2 LBS large shrimp peeled and deveined
12 large rosemary sprigs, prepared as skewers and soaked in water for at least 2 hours, or overnight
2 lemons, cut into wedges

Directions:
  1. Toss the parsley leaves, basil leaves, salt, pepper, bread crumbs and ¼ cup of the olive oil into the food processor and pulse until the herbs are chopped and the bread crumbs are green. Transfer to a bowl, add the shrimp and toss to coat well.
  2. Skewer 4 or 5 shrimp on each rosemary sprig. Dredge both sides in the bread crumb mixture, place on a platter, and put in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  3. For a gas grill, preheat to medium-high and place Western Apple Wood Chips in a smoking tray or arrange in a foil pack and place directly over the hottest part of the grill. For a charcoal grill, prepare a fire and then place a handful of Western Apple Chips directly on your hot coals or place chips in a smoking tray and place on the grill.
  4. When the grill is hot and the chips are smoking, place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning once, just until the shrimp are opaque throughout and some of the bread crumbs are browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. For best results, at least half of the cooking time should be with the lid closed to infuse the wood chip flavor.
  5. Transfer to a serving platter and serve with the lemon wedges.
