Keto Brined Lemon Pepper Shrimp

Keto Brined Lemon Pepper Shrimp

Ingredients

FOR THE BRINE:

  • 2 tablespoons (40 g) rock salt or large-crystal sea salt
  • 1 quart (960 ml) cold water 2 tablespoons (3 g) Splenda
  • 1/4 teaspoon blackstrap molasses
  • 1 pound (455 g) shrimp in the shell-whatever size you like

FOR THE SEASONING:

  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons (12 g) lemon pepper

Method

  1. To brine the shrimp: Dissolve the salt in the water
  2. Stir in the Splenda and molasses
  3. Now pour this mixture over the shrimp you’ve placed in a bowl or in a large resealable plastic bag
  4. If you’re using a bag, press out the air and seal it
  5. Either way, make sure the shrimp are submerged
  6. Let them sit in the brine for 30 to 45 minutes for medium-size shrimp or as much as an hour for really huge ones
  7. To cook: While your shrimp are brining, crush the garlic and pour the olive oil over it
  8. That way, you’ll have garlic-flavored olive oil by the time the shrimp are ready to cook
  9. Drain the brine off of the shrimp and pat them dry with a paper towel
  10. Put the shrimp in a bowl, pour the garlic olive oil over them, and toss
  11. Now sprinkle the lemon pepper over them and toss again
  12. You’ll need a small-holed grill rack or a grill wok
  13. Lift the shrimp out of the olive oil with a fork to let the excess oil drip off and put over a medium-hot fire
  14. Grill quickly, turning two or three times, until pink all the way through-the timing will depend on the size of your shrimp, but it shouldn’t take more than 6 or 7 minutes
  15. If the olive oil causes flare-ups, keep them down with a squirt bottle
