It also works well for fish, so you can try a mix of shrimp and your favorite fish (Tilapia, Catfish, Red Snapper, Salmon, etc.)
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 3 large cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 orange, juiced
- 1 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, or 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh basil, minced
- 2 tablespoons white wine (optional)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 30 large shrimp, peeled and, if you like, deveined
Directions
- In a glass bowl, combine the olive oil, mustard, garlic, lemon juice, orange juice, basil and white wine and mix. Add the shrimp, sprinkle with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, and stir to coat. Cover, and let marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Heat an outdoor grill to high heat.
- Thread prawns onto skewers or put in a single layer in a grill basket. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes, turning once, until pink.

Not only was the marinade wonderful on shrimp, but I had some left over & the coals were still hot, so I dipped a couple pork chops in it & grilled them & they were to die for! Thanks for a great recipe!I've cooked/tasted this recipe!
