We'll get the gambas out of the freezer and have them thawed. If they are thawed well we dup them dry with kitchen paper and put them in a Tupperware tray or another tray where a lid can be on. We now add the olive oil and press the 2 garlic cloves and also add this. Now we add 2 tablespoons of the Cajun herbs and mix the whole well. The whole thing now enters the refrigerator for a period of no less than 4 hours but at least 1 hour. Mix it again in between as the marinade sinks down into the refrigerator.
When the shrimps are sufficiently marinated we light the barbecue and put the cast iron pan directly above the coal on the grill. We're going for a temperature around 200 degrees Celsius. Once the temperature is reached the shrimp can be in the skillet and you turn it around after a minute or 2-3 to which you bake the other side for just as long. Are the shrimp completely white in color and no longer transparent? Then this is an indication that they are cooked enough.
BBQ temperature: 200°CThen take the gambas off the barbecue and serve them with a little freshly cut parsley. You can also choose to serve a nice garlic sauce with this but these flavor bombs don't actually need that. Enjoy it!
