Marinade:
Pesto Sauce:
Straighten each shrimp without breaking it, and insert the bamboo skewer lengthwise.
It should look like a shrimp lollipop.
Combine the marinade ingredients in a small bowl, mix well, and pour over the shrimp in a large, shallow pan.
Coat well.
Refrigerate for about 2 hours.
Prepare the pesto sauce in a blender.
Combine the parsley, basil, garlic, almonds, and a little oil at first, pureeing.
With the motor running, slowly pour the remaining oil in, then season with the salt, pepper, lemon juice, and puree a brief moment longer.
Scrape into a small serving bowl and set aside.
Grill the shrimp about 2 minutes on a side.
Place the pesto sauce in the center of a serving platter, and arrange the shrimp skewers around it.
