Grilled Shrimp Skewers with Zucchini

Ingredients

• •1.5 lbs large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• •3 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch rounds
• •1/4 cup olive oil
• •4 cloves garlic, minced
• •3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• •1 tsp dried oregano
• •1/2 tsp salt
• •1/4 tsp black pepper
• •1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
• •2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

1. 1Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
2. 2Whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes in a bowl.
3. 3Toss shrimp and zucchini in the marinade and let sit for 10 minutes.
4. 4Thread shrimp and zucchini alternately onto skewers.
5. 5Grill skewers for 3-4 minutes per side until shrimp are pink and zucchini is tender.

💡 Cut zucchini rounds thick enough to stay on skewers and give shrimp space; thin zucchini softens and slips off before seafood is done.
