3The Cook

    • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

    • Brush your shrimp evenly with the pesto, then place your skewers on the grate. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side until your shrimp reaches an internal temperature of 145ºF. Your shrimp should look opaque and cooked through.

    • Serve immediately with additional pesto or ranch dressing if desired.

  • For safe meat preparation, reference the USDA website.
