Lemon Garlic Grilled Shrimp is super quick to cook. I like to grill vegetables first before I put on the shrimp because the shrimp grill so quickly. You can use metal or wooden skewers but I prefer to use a grill pan because there is no messing with skewers.
The recipe is served with pasta but you can easily substitute that out for rice.
Fish is more expensive than other meats so the cost per serving is a lot higher. It is not really a budget friendly protein.
