Directions:
With a small sharp knife or kitchen shears, make a slit down the back of the shrimp shell, leaving the tail intact. Devein using the tine of a form. Using your thumbs, gently loosen the meat from the shell, leaving it attached at the tail. Reform the shrimp. (This makes the shrimp easier to eat.)
Set up your grill for direct grilling and preheat to medium-high. Brush and oil the grill grate.
Arrange the shrimp on the grill grate. Spray the shrimp with olive oil as they cook. The cooking time is brief, 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are sizzling, lightly browned, and cooked through.
