Grilling just brings out more depth of flavor with a hint of smokiness to it and gives it a nice texture with those sought-after charred grill marks. Plus, it takes just 20 minutes to cook.

I like to serve it with some side dishes, especially if I am feeding a crowd. Some freshly baked&nbsp;French baguettes&nbsp;or&nbsp;sourdough bread&nbsp;pair really nicely with this. I also like to add something a little lighter like a fresh&nbsp;strawberry and avocado salad&nbsp;or&nbsp;summer corn salad&nbsp;on the side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick and easy grilled shrimp boil with large tiger prawns, fresh corn, baby potatoes, and sausage, is tossed in a classic seafood seasoning blend and fresh parsley and drenched in&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":40554,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"wpai_generated_summary":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"{title}\n\n{excerpt}\n\n{url}","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","default_image_id":71799,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[3772],"tags":[7161],"class_list":["post-40553","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipes","tag-easy-grilled-shrimp-boil"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40553"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40553\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40554"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
