  2. Thread marinated shrimp onto skewers. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  3. Grill skewers for 2-3 minutes per side until shrimp are pink, opaque, and just cooked through.
  4. Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan, stir in minced garlic, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Brush grilled shrimp with warm garlic butter sauce and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Notes

Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Do not overcook shrimp to keep them tender. Reserve extra garlic butter for dipping.
