2 tbsp fresh chives, minced

1/2 tsp paprika

1/4 cup olive oil

salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Directions

Preheat grill at high heat.

Combine softened butter, shallots, garlic, chives, paprika, olive oil, salt, and pepper; add the shrimp, and toss to coat well.

Lightly oil the grill grate. Place the shrimp as close to the flame as possible, and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until opaque in color.

I am attempting shrimp scampi for the first time tonight. I will be cooking for one. I have 8-10 medium sized precooked shrimp and will be quartering them in an attempt to balance the whole head of garlic and half box of linguine I plan to use. I don't have the shallot or chives, but will do my best. Salud!

I'll have to face the garlic taste as I'm not found of it, but this recipe really makes me mad.

Did this last Sunday. Just got around to posting on it. We bought some huge prawns and used them. Grilled them on a fish plate along with some T-Bones. Feast for Royalty. I've added a pic to the recipe. If you don't care for it let me know and I'll remove it.

I made something like this a few days ago over a skillet (too cold/snowy to grill), it still turned out pretty good!

You may even try to add some chili powder to it for a little kick :)
