1

In a bowl, add 1 tablespoon of granulated garlic to the shrimp.

2

Add 2 tablespoons of Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the shrimp.

3

Pour in just over 1/4 cup of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of parsley flakes.

4

Seal the bowl and massage the shrimp to coat evenly with the mixture.

5

Place the shrimp in the refrigerator to marinate for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

6

After marinating, soak skewers in water for over an hour.

7

Thread the marinated shrimp onto the skewers, double skewering them for easier flipping on the grill.

8

Prepare the basting sauce by melting butter and mixing in 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of parsley flakes, and about 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

9

Spray a cast iron griddle with canola oil to prevent sticking.

10

Heat the griddle and place the skewers on it, grilling for about 1.5 to 2 minutes on each side.

11

After the first flip, baste the shrimp with the prepared basting sauce.

12

Cook for another 1.5 to 2 minutes, then flip again and baste the other side.

13

After about 40 seconds, remove the shrimp from the grill and baste again before serving.
