You want to watch the exposure on the back of your camera's histogram.

You want it to peak somewhere between 1/3rd- to 1/2-way across the X-axis.

Use LiveView Exposure Simulation (if your camera has it) for working out exact shutter speed required. Or, just view the histogram as you take test shots.
