Lemon & butter marinated shrimp skewers.....easy and yumm-o!

Directions

*NOTE: Be sure to soak the wooden skewers in water for about an hour prior to grilling. If not, they will burn up on the grill because they will be dry wood.

Marinate raw shrimp in melted butter and lemon juice mixture for an hour (you can even marinate overnight if you choose) - cover & refrigerate. Skewer the shrimp. Place on the grill and sprinkle shrimp with seasoning salt and old bay. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side. ENJOY!

Ingredients

-		4 wooden skewers*
-		1/2 pound medium -sized, deveined raw shrimp. (Peel the shell if it is still on.)
-		4 tablespoons butter (melted)
-		4 tablespoons lemon juice
		Lawry's seasoning salt (to taste)
		Old Bay seasoning (to taste)
