Comments:
We created this recipe when Lynne bought some fresh Gulf shrimp and we wanted to cook them in the simplest possible way to extract the most flavor.
Serving Suggestions:
Ingredients:
1 lb of fresh Gulf shrimp, as large as you can get
Olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
Red pepper flakes
1 tsp. fresh oregano, chopped fine
Italian loaf bread, cut into large chunks

Skewers
Salad or couscous

Instructions:
1. Shell and clean the shrimp.

2. Put the shrimp in a glass bowl. Pour enough olive oil in the bowl to coat the shrimp when tossed -- about 1/4 cup or less. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add chopped oregano and a few red pepper flakes. Toss to coat, cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge to marinate while you build a charcoal fire or fire up the gas grill.

3. When the grill is ready, put the shrimp on skewers alternating one shrimp with a chunk of the bread.

4. Grill over a medium fire until done.

5. Serve with a salad or over couscous.
