Recipe Ingredients

• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 1/4 cup minced fresh basil
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons coarse salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

• Juice of 1 lemon
• 2 pounds jumbo shrimp (16 to 20 per pound),
•     peeled and deveined, tails intact
• Vegetable oil, for grilling
• Mango Salsa (recipe follows)

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, combine garlic, onion, parsley, basil, mustards, salt, pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice. Add the shrimp, and marinate for 1 hour at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
2. Heat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the rack or pan with vegetable oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking. Skewer 5 to 6 shrimp on a 12-inch skewer for a dinner serving. Grill the shrimp on each side, until opaque and lightly charred, about 1 1/2 minutes. Serve with Mango Salsa.
