Featuring succulent shrimp marinated in a rich blend of olive oil, coconut aminos, no-sugar-added tomato paste, and a touch of liquid stevia, this dish delivers bold barbecue taste without sacrificing your keto goals. Smoked paprika, garlic powder, and apple cider vinegar elevate the marinade, while a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of chopped parsley add brightness and zest. With just 30 minutes from prep to plate, this quick and easy recipe is ideal for weeknight dinners or summer cookouts. Serve it alongside keto-friendly sides like grilled veggies or a crisp green salad for a complete meal bursting with flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, apple cider vinegar, coconut aminos, tomato paste, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, salt, and liquid stevia. Whisk until well combined to form a marinade.
Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade, tossing to ensure they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers (if using a grill) or directly place them onto the grill.
Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are opaque and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook, as shrimp can become tough.
Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the grill and drizzle with lemon juice for added freshness.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately while hot, alongside your favorite keto side dishes, such as grilled vegetables or a green salad.
