Grilled Shrimp

Brent and I made this months ago after I found it online.  Had forgotten all about it until it was emailed to me in my “Recipe Of The Day” from Allrecipes.com (my favorite recipe site!)  It was amazing!! Can’t wait to make it next week.
Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 lemons, juiced
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup minced fresh basil leaves
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • salt to taste
  • white pepper
  • 3 pounds fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • skewers
Directions
1.      In a shallow bowl, mix together olive oil and melted butter. Stir in lemon juice, mustard, basil, and garlic, and season with salt and white pepper (I used regular pepper).  Add shrimp, and mix. Cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
2.      Preheat grill to high heat. Remove shrimp from marinade, and thread onto skewers.
3.      Lightly oil grill grate, and arrange skewers on preheated grill. Cook for 4 minutes, turning once, or until opaque.
