Raise your hand if you want to make the easiest, fastest, no mess in your kitchen Summer dinner!!! (By the way, both of my hands are up, because that is everything I want in a dinner right now.)

Grilled Garlic, Rosemary and Mustard Shrimp from HeatherChristo.com

I have always worked, but have been working out-side of the home most days for the first time since my girls were born and it is a MAJOR adjustment. But I am glad that it has opened my mind up to the struggles of getting healthy, fresh food on the table FAST on weeknights. To all of you who are achieving that for yourselves and for family, pat yourself on the back- because sometime sit is hard to get the energy up for it.

With that in mind, I am going to really try hard to bring you those types of options more and more. Also, if you follow me on insta-stories, I will make a good solid effort to let you see what I am pulling together at night post work.

Grilled Garlic, Rosemary and Mustard Shrimp from HeatherChristo.com

I hope you enjoyed yesterdays Grilled Greek Chicken Salad, and here we go with another easy Summer dish: Grilled Garlic, Rosemary and Mustard Shrimp. I live in the Northwest so we have rosemary growing like CRAZY and I have to start using it before it takes over completely. Do you all have easy access to fresh rosemary?

I’m lazy and totally buy my shrimp peeled and deveined. Which means that it just takes me a couple minutes to slap those babies on skewers and a couple minutes to whisk together the marinade and dump it on top.

While the shrimp are soaking I can make a salad like this, or even a super quickie pasta dish like this. Hell I could probably make both.

Then I grill the shrimp for TWO minutes and dinner is done. Is that not amazing!?

Ingredients
  • For the Marinade:
  • ⅓ cup grainy Dijon mustard
  • 2 large cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary

  • kosher salt and black pepper
  • 1 pounds peeled and deveined shrimp
  • 7-8 wooden skewers

  2. Thread the shrimp onto the wooden skewers 3 at a time. Place them all in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, turning to coat each skewer. Let the shrimp sit in the marinade for at least 15 minutes and up to a few hours in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
