Smoky Grilled Shrimp with Lemon Sauce
Ingredients
  • 2 slices cured lemon
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 pound extra large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
1
Rinse cured lemons under cold running water to rinse away the curing liquid, for about 10 minutes. Pat dry lemons with paper towels and chop them into tiny pieces.
2
Combine the minced lemon, mayonnaise, tarragon, and freshly squeezed lemon juice in a bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture until it's well chilled, at least 15 minutes.
3
Heat up your outdoor grill to extremely high temperatures and lightly brush the grates with oil.
4
Place the shrimp in a bowl. Drizzle olive oil over them and sprinkle paprika and salt to taste, ensuring the shrimp are evenly coated.
5
Grill the shrimp over high heat until they turn a vibrant pink on the outside and the meat is opaque throughout, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate and serve with a side of chilled lemon aioli.
