Place the baking sheet in the oven and broil until juicy and opaque, about 3 to 6 minutes, until juicy and opaque, rotating the tray as necessary for even cooking.

CHEF JOHN'S GRILLED GARLIC AND HERB SHRIMP

Steps:

• Place salt, lemon zest, and 3 cloves garlic in bowl of a mortar and pestle. Pound with the pestle until mixture begins to form a paste, about 2 minutes. Add chopped basil, parsley, oregano, and thyme and pound with pestle until mixture begin to come together, about 5 minutes.
• Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into herb mixture. Grind together until mixture begins to form a sauce for marinating, about 1 minute. Pour in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Stir mixture with a spoon until mixture is thoroughly combined, adding additional olive oil as needed. Mixture should be fairly thick but pourable.
• Place shrimp in a large bowl and mix in about 2/3 of the sauce, reserving 1/3 for serving. Stir until shrimp are evenly coated with the sauce, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining sauce.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

SPICY BROILED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Thaw shrimp overnight in the refrigerator (or thaw in the bag in lukewarm water if you forget to plan ahead.) I used 31-40 count shrimp, so if you're lucky enough to find larger shrimp, increase the cooking time a tiny bit.
• When you're ready to cook, remove shrimp from the refrigerator and drain in a colander placed in the sink, then use a paper towel to pat shrimp dry if they still seem wet.
• Preheat broiler and put the rack so it's as close to the broiler as possible.
• Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in two individual casserole dishes or one larger casserole dish.
• I sprayed the casserole dishes with non-stick spray but it's probably not essential.
• Once shrimp are arranged in a single layer, add seasonings in this order:
• Drizzle shrimp with olive oil or melted butter and squeeze lemon juice over the shrimp (I used a squeezer that catches the seeds).
• Sprinkle Worchestershire sauce over the shrimp.
• Sprinkle Creole Seasoning (or make your own Creole Seasoning Blend) over the shrimp.
• Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper (skip the salt if you use Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning, which has salt).
• When the rest of the meal is ready or almost ready, put shrimp under the broiler and cook for 7-8 minutes, or just until the shrimp turn pink and feel barely firm to the touch.
• Don't overcook. If your shrimp are larger than 31-40 count they may take a minute or two longer to cook, but not much.

SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine the ingredients for the marinade. Add the shrimp, cover, and chill for approximately 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, combine the spice rub ingredients and set aside.
• To cook: Remove the shrimp from the marinade, skewer onto bamboo skewers, and season with a pinch of the spice rub. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat and grill the shrimp for 2 1/2 minutes on each side.

GRILLED HERB SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients and allow them to marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
• Skewer the shrimp. I use 3 or 4 shrimp on a 12-inch skewer for dinner. Heat a grill with coals and brush the grill with oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Grill the shrimp for only 1 1/2 minutes on each side.
