For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the marinade. If you don't have fresh basil, dried basil can be used, but reduce the amount to 1 tablespoon. This marinade also works wonderfully with chicken or fish. Consider serving the grilled shrimp over a bed of couscous or quinoa for a complete and healthy meal.
