Ingredients
2lbsshrimp (any size), peeled and deveined
2Tablespoonsolive oil
1/2teaspoonsalt
1/2teaspoonfreshly cracked black pepper
1/2stick unsalted butter, melted
1/4cupFrank's RedHot Sauce
Blue cheese dressing, for serving
Celery sticks, for serving
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium, or alternately, preheat a grill pan over medium heat.
Toss the shrimp in a large bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper.
Combine the melted butter and hot sauce in a separate large bowl. Set aside.
Grill the shrimp for 2-4 minutes on each side, depending on how large they are, and then transfer them immediately to the bowl containing the sauce. Toss to coat well.
Serve the shrimp with blue cheese dressing and celery sticks.
Notes
Don’t overcook the shrimp! They cook quickly, so remove them from the heat as soon as they turn opaque to avoid a rubbery texture.
If you’re not a fan of too much heat, start with less hot sauce and add more to taste.
For the best texture and flavor, serve the shrimp immediately after cooking.
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, add a little butter and sauté on the stove for a few minutes to restore some of their original juiciness.
