Maui Wowie Shrimp
Here’s a quick, easy and foolproof way to cook shrimp on the barbie. The mayonnaise protects the shrimp from drying on the grill and can give the outside a little bit of crisp. This whole operation takes about 20 minutes, so it’s great for a quick mid-week meal — and you won’t have much clean up afterwards! Why Maui Wowie? The cayenne pepper gives them a little kick and once you’ve tasted these, they’re absolutely addictive.
2 pounds uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste
ground black pepper to taste
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste (Optional)
1 cup mayonnaise
1 lemon, cut into wedges
Preheat outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
Thread shrimp onto skewers. Season both sides of shrimp with garlic salt and black pepper.
Cayenne pepper can be added with the garlic salt and black pepper, or mix 1/4 teaspoon into mayonnaise before coating shrimp, for a spicier flavor.
Generously coat both sides of shrimp with mayonnaise.
Cook shrimp on heated grill until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and opaque on the inside, and the mayonnaise turns golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes on each side. Serve with lemon wedges, remoulade or tartar sauce.
