Steps:
- Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium-high fire. Without removing the shells, slit about 3/4 of the way through the shrimp down the ridged back and remove the vein that runs down the center. Rinse and pat the shrimp dry. Whisk thyme leaves, lime juice, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and black pepper, to taste, in a shallow nonreactive bowl or dish. Lay the shrimp cut side down in the lime mixture and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- In a food processor, pulse the garlic, jalapeno, scallions, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to make a coarse paste. Add the cilantro and pulse just enough to incorporate into the mixture. Spoon the mixture into the opening in the shrimp and close the shrimp. Grill the shrimp shell side down (to keep filling from falling out) for 3 minutes. Turn to the other shell side, cover, and grill another 2 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and are slightly firm to the touch. Sprinkle with salt and serve.
- Jumbo shrimp in the shell can be a knife and fork sort of deal unless you're outside and it's summer and you are feeling very relaxed. Serve these with lots of napkins if your crowd is the peel-and-eat type.
BAKED STUFFED SHRIMP WITH RITZ CRACKERS®
My late mother created this recipe over thirty years ago. My grandparents, my father, and myself have enjoyed these baked stuffed shrimp every other Friday for many years. It's a tradition - we eat baked stuffed shrimp for dinner and then play cards! (We've been leaving out the scallops lately due to the high price, and we don't even miss them.) We serve the shrimp with a nice garden salad and rice pilaf or baked potato.

SHRIMP STUFFED TROUT.
I like making this dish when we go camping, if we are lucky enough to catch some trout. A couple of time I've used canned baby shrimp and a jar of chopped roasted red peppers. It works pretty well, but then again, everything tastes better when you are camping.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, large shrimp. This will ensure that the shrimp are plump and juicy after they are cooked.
- Devein the shrimp properly. This will remove the digestive tract from the shrimp, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat.
- Use a sharp knife to make a slit in the back of the shrimp. This will make it easier to stuff the shrimp.
- Don't overstuff the shrimp. Too much stuffing will make the shrimp difficult to eat and can cause them to fall apart.
- Cook the shrimp until they are just cooked through. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. This will ensure that they are hot and juicy.
