Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. Coat a grill rack with cooking spray. Preheat the grill to medium-high. If you think your shrimp will fall through the grilling rack, prepare a fish basket to grill the shrimp in and coat the inside of the basket with cooking spray.

     

  1. Drizzle the shrimp with the olive oil. Combine the cumin, chili powder, coriander, salt, and black pepper and rub onto the shrimp.

  2. Six inches away from the heat source, add the shrimp directly to the grill rack or place in a single layer in the fish basket. Grill the shrimp for about 2 to 3 minutes per side or until cooked through. Meanwhile, add the lemon halves, cut side down, and grill for 3 to 4 minutes, just until the lemon is slightly charred.

  3. Add the grilled shrimp to a platter. Garnish with the grilled lemon halves and minced parsley.
