Make the Shrimp & Asparagus Recipe Faster

Speed tactics for grilled shrimp & asparagus.

Back to full list

Ingredients

  • Raw shrimp 1 lb
  • Asparagus 1 lb
  • Peeled garlic 2 cloves
  • Lemon 1
  • Olive oil 2 tbsp
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Buy pre-peeled/deveined shrimp: biggest time saver. If it’s shell-on, consider switching to a peeled option next time.
  2. Sheet-pan alternative (often faster than grilling): roast at 450°F on one pan—start asparagus 6 minutes, add shrimp, roast 5–6 minutes more. No grill preheat or outdoor setup.
  3. If grilling: preheat while you prep; keep lid closed so it reaches temp faster.
  4. Skip mincing: use garlic paste/pre-minced garlic.
  5. Bundle asparagus: grill in a foil packet or on a grill basket so you don’t have to manage individual spears.
  6. Use zest + juice efficiently: zest lemon directly over the bowl, then cut and squeeze—no extra tools to wash.
  7. Marinate in the bag: toss shrimp/asparagus with oil/seasoning inside a large zip bag; shake and dump onto grill/pan (less cleanup).
