Preheat
Barbecue (oil hot grill to help prevent sticking).
In the food processor, place minced garlic,
salt, pepper, lime juice, and olive oil; blend until smooth and emulsified.
Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving the tails on.
Place deveined shrimp in a large bowl. Toss shrimp with the lime marinade.
NOTE: Do not leave the shrimp in the marinade for more
than 15 minutes, as the texture of the shrimp will change. The lime juice
will actually start cooking the shrimp.
After marinating the shrimp and ready to
cook, place the marinated shrimp onto the hot grill and cook approximately 3 minutes
(depending on size of the shrimp) on one side; turn and cook another 2 to 3 minutes or until shrimp are opaque in center (cut to test). Remove from grill.
To serve, arrange shrimp on a large serving platter and enjoy!
Makes 6 servings.
