Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, oregano, garlic powder, fennel seeds, cumin seeds, salt, and lemon zest; mix to combine. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 5 hours refrigerated.*Note: If using wooden skewers, soak in water while the shrimp marinates.
- Meanwhile, prepare Lemon-Dill Sauce by combining Greek yogurt (or sour cream), mayonnaise, lemon juice, dill, chives, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Thread marinated shrimp onto 8 metal or wood skewers, alternating with zucchini and chunks of red onion. (Aim for 3 shrimp per skewer.) Brush any remaining marinade over the zucchini and red onion. Place skewers on a parchment-lined baking sheet. *Note: if you're cooking the shrimp and veggies stovetop, there's no need to use skewers.

LEMON-GARLIC MARINATED SHRIMP (ICE COLD AND REFRESHING)
I found this recipe on the Eating Well website amongst the diabetic friendly recipes. It's supposed to be an appetizer but I served it over a nice salad as a cool, refreshing summer dinner. We loved it. The shrimp are super simple to prepare and they tasted great hot or cold although they are meant to be served cold. Serves 12 as an appy but 6 as a main course.

Steps:
- Divide the shrimp between two 8- or 9-inch pie pans and pat them completely dry with a paper towel. Arrange the shrimp so they lay flat and are evenly spaced in the pans.
- Heat 2 large skillets over medium heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper; add a teaspoon of butter to one of the pans and turn the heat to high. When the foam subsides, invert a pan of shrimp over the skillet so they fall into the pan all at once. Repeat with the other shrimp. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until they turn golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Add a remaining teaspoon of butter to each pan and turn off the heat. Turn the shrimp over with tongs and cook for 1 minute in the residual heat of the pans. Add half the zest, juice, and dill to each pan, and shake the pan to combine.
- Divide the shrimp among 4 plates or arrange on a platter. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle shrimp with salt and pepper; add shrimp to skillet and sauté until just opaque in center, about 3 minutes. Transfer to plate. Whisk next 5 ingredients in large bowl. Whisk in 8 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Mix in shrimp and accumulated juices, capers and green onions. Cool slightly, then cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to 1 day.
- Arrange butter lettuce leaves on 8 plates. Top with shrimp, dividing equally. Drizzle with more marinade, if desired. Garnish with lemon rounds and fresh dill sprigs, if desired.
