    I put them in the oven by themselves with a tiny bit of olive oil, himalayan sea salt and cracked pepper. Sooooo good, and it doesn't shrink them like the frying pan does.

    I like them grilled on skewers with the shells on (keeps them moist). Brush with a little melted butter or spray with olive oil, then pluck the shells off a serve over zoodles with a fire roasted marinara.

    I also grill them in a Dutch oven with some beer or wine, little butter, garlic and chopped herbs. Pull the shrimp out with slotted spoon and heat the crap out of the sauce until it boils down a little and serve with a crusty sourdough. Mussels and clams the same way.

    When grilling we toss in oil, black pepper, cayenne and garlic powder and either just toss on the grill or put on skewers, depending on size. Agree with the above post - leave the shells on till after cooking so go heavy on the spices as you'll peel a lot of it off.

    I like my grilled shrimp to be simple. I normally take the shells off except for the tail. This requires you to really watch them, however. Lightly mist them with olive oil spray, sprinkle on some old bay, and put them on soaked bamboo/wooden skewers. They're delicious. Serve with a large salad and either a baked potato or some rice.

    Regular olive oil or canola oil, lime zest, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin = a tasty rub. These are good for shrimp tacos with some shredded cabbage, lime juice, and crema.
