Grilled Shrimp With Vodka Lime Sauce

Preheat the grill to medium heat.

In a zip-top plastic bag, combine the shrimp, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Seal and turn to coat the shrimp in the mixture. Let stand at room temperature while you prepare the sauce.

Combine the vodka, wine, and lime juice in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and let cook until the liquid has reduced to 1/3 the amount (about 2/3 cup should be remaining).

When the sauce has reduced, add the butter one tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly until the butter is blended in fully before adding the next addition. Season with salt and pepper, turn off the heat but leave the pan on the burner so the sauce stays warm. If the sauce cools off, reheat it in the top of a double boiler.

Remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread on skewers. Place on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until opaque. Do not overcook the shrimp.

Remove the shrimp from the grill and divide between individual serving plates. Drizzle them with the vodka sauce, sprinkle with the parsley, and serve immediately.
