This recipie was in the local newspaper last week and it looked so good I had to try it. It's Great! The melding of lemon, oregano, garlic and olive oil can't be beat when applied to shrimp on the BBQ.

Ingredients

2 lbs cleaned large shrimp
1/4 cup olive oil

1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
1 tablespoon oregano
1 garlic clove
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Put all ingredients (except the dressing) in a large bowl and marinate for 15 - 20 minutes.
Thread shrimp on metal skewers ( or well soaked bamboo) and grill for 5-6 minutes turning often (they will turn red and opaque when done).
Serve over rice (or better yet pilaf) with lemon wedges, pitted black olives and cherry tomatoes and drizzle with the dressing.
