Oven Shrimp Skewers

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1.5 lb jumbo shrimp (peeled & deveined, tail-ON)
• 1 medium zucchini (cut into round slices)
• 1 medium red onion (cut into cubes)
• Fresh dill (to garnish)
• Lemon wedges (to garnish)

Steps

1. 1

   In a small bowl, mix the ingredients to marinate; lime juice, olive oil, paprika, onion powder, oregano, garlic, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper.

2. 2

   Pour the marinade over the shrimp and toss until well-coated. Reserve about 2 tablespoons of marinade for brushing later. Allow the shrimp to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Thread a shrimp on a wooden or metal skewer, followed by zucchini and red onion. Repeat the same until the end of the skewers.

4. 4

   Place the shrimp skewers on a baking rack/pan and broil on high for 3-5 minutes on each side or until the shrimp is cooked through by turning the skewers often.

5. 5

   Once done, brush the reserved marinade over the skewers and garnish the shrimp skewers with fresh dill and lemon wedges before servings.
