These delicious shrimp can also be served as an appetizer. Use the Creole Sauce on the side for dipping. Make grilling the shrimp easier by using a grill screen to cook them in.


   1 pound fresh or frozen raw large shrimp in shells
   1/2 cup olive oil or vegetable
   1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
   1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves (no not substitue fresh)
   1/2 teaspoon chili oil or crushed red pepper
   1/4 teaspoon salt
   1 clove garlic, finely chopped
   Creole Sauce (see recipe)
   3 cups hot cooked rice


Peel shrimp. (If shrimp are frozen, do not thaw; peel in cold water.) Make a shallow cut lengthwise down back of each shrimp; wash out vein. Mix remaining ingredients except Creole Sauce and rice in large nonmetal bowl. Add shrimp, stirring to coat with marinade. Cover and refrigerate at least 15 minutes but no longer than 1 hour. Brush grill rack with vegetable oil. Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Prepare Creole Sauce; keep warm. Drain shrimp; discard marinade. Grill shrimp uncovered
4 inches from medium heat 4 to 6 minutes, turning once, until shrimp are pink and firm. Serve shrimp and sauce over rice.
