WebMD Recipe

Serve the shrimp with whatever dipping sauce or salsa you desire. You can use an indoor grill with this recipe, if you like. If your shrimp are smaller than the jumbo shrimp called for below, it may take half as long to cook each side.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds
jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined, and patted dry with paper towels (about 16)
2 teaspoons
extra-virgin olive oil, or canola oil
1/4 teaspoon
salt
1/4 teaspoon
freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon
paprika
1/4 cup
jalapeno jelly, warmed briefly in the microwave to soften
1/4 cup
bottled chili sauce
salsa, like peach salsa

Instructions

Get the grill or barbecue hot according to manufacturers instructions.
Brush the outside of the shrimp lightly with oil. Sprinkle both sides of shrimp lightly with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Place shrimp over direct, high heat on the grill. Grill about 2 minutes on the first side, then flip over and cook about 2 more minutes until cooked throughout.
Serve warm with dipping sauce.
