These were very good and so easy! I marinated the shrimp in a ziploc in the fridge for an hour, then added the lemon juice and I also added Old Bay Seasoning. Delicious !!

This is a very good and simple recipe for shrimp. I'm pretty sure the amount of coarse salt called for is to aid in crushing the garlic into a paste. The abrasive sharp edges of the salt help grind it up (thank you FoodNetwork), and I've never had to actually use a whole tablespoon. If you skip the grinding part and just mince the garlic, you could just add salt to taste.

This recipe was great. I followed the recipe to a T and wouldn't change a thing about it, it had wonderful spice, but wasn't too hot and the perfect amount of lemon flavor came through. I marinaded the shrimp for about 15 minutes before cooking and used an indoor grill pan. The only thing I'll do different next time is make more!! Thanks for the keeper!

This was very good, I spiced it up a little with extra heat and garlic. No need to add additional liquid or oil.

Absolutely delicious, I have used medium size shrimp also, whatever is on sale, and I do not use all that salt either, I just season to taste, and I let the shrimp marinade for 30 min. But just watch the salt!!

This recipe is awesome! As long as you don't overcook the shrimp this is restaurant quality. I've made it many times over the past year and it is always a hit!

By far the best shrimp recipe ever. I made this 3 times since finding this recipe, and I'm reminded every time how YUMMY it is. Unfortunately I haven't had the chance to try it on a BBQ, will do so this weekend. But if you spread the shrimp out on foil lined (no cleanup!) baking sheet on the top rack under the broiler for 4 minutes (flip after the first 2) - it's still AWESOME! My son who HATES spicy food loves it, and I even caught my cat stealing a piece off the plate when my back was turned. The darned cat sat there and gave us the "I'm starving to death" stare the whole time we at dinner.

This is the best grilled shrimp i have ever had! We always make it for company, and each time they always ask me for the recipe. Hands down a WINNER!

This recipe wasn't as good as the reviews showed. I didn't really care for the flavor. The next time I try shrimp, I will try a different recipe.

Excellent recipe for Shrimp that tastes great, is a fast marinade and easy to make. Complete recommended with everyone on the salt. The original recipe asks for a tablespoon. I went with a teaspoon and thought that was just a little too much. I increased the cayenne pepper which was just right. During cooking, I cooked it for 2 1/2 minutes on each side and it was perfect but I think that each grill's heat pattern is different. Be careful not to over-cook the shrimp.

Not quite as good as the Thai BBQ Shrimp but still four stars for good taste, simplicity and healthy. Again, I use the pre-cooked, already peeled frozen shrimp for extra ease.

My family loved it. The only change I made to the original recipe was I used bottled lemon juice as I didn't have a lemon on hand. I think next time I make it I will cut down on the lemon juice, maybe half the amount called for.
