Lagostim Grelhado (Grilled Crayfish)

Ingredients

• •1 kg crayfish (fresh or frozen), cleaned and deveined
• •4 cloves garlic, minced
• •2 tablespoons olive oil
• •Juice of 1 lemon
• •Salt and pepper to taste
• •Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish

Directions

1. 1Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
2. 2In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
3. 3Place the cleaned and deveined crayfish in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the crayfish, ensuring they are evenly coated. Allow the crayfish to marinate for 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
4. 4Once marinated, remove the crayfish from the marinade and shake off any excess liquid.
5. 5Place the crayfish directly onto the preheated grill, shell side down. Grill for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the shells turn bright red and the flesh is opaque and cooked through.
6. 6Carefully remove the grilled crayfish from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
7. 7Garnish the grilled crayfish with fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and additional flavor.
8. 8Serve the Lagostim Grelhado hot off the grill as a delicious and flavorful seafood dish.
