Large, plump shrimp are marinated in a savory sauce of lemon juice, garlic, Italian seasoning, olive oil, dried basil, and brown sugar, then grilled to highlight the flavors.
Gourmet meal that's on your table in 30 minutes. The result was this dish and it's superb. If you don't have fresh thyme, I'd suggest using 1/2 tsp dried in it's place. And if you cannot find Asiago cheese, Romano or Parmesan is a decent substitute.
