Begin by patting your peeled and deveined shrimp dry using paper towels. If using wooden skewers, start soaking them in water now.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all the olive oil (or avocado oil), lemon zest, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Add the shrimp and toss until well combined. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 20 - 30 minutes but no more than 2 hours.

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. I like to lightly spray it with olive oil, too.

Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers starting at the sharp end of the skewer. Repeat this process until you have 4 to 5 skewers, each holding 4 to 6 shrimp each. I recommend metal skewers. But you can also use wooden skewers; just make sure to soak them in water for 30 minutes, so they do not burn in the oven.

Bake the shrimp skewers in the preheated oven for a total of 6 to 8 minutes. The shrimp are done when they are light pink and opaque. You can broil during the last minute if you want crispier edges (mimics a sear). Be careful not to overcook the shrimp, as they can become rubbery.

Serve the baked shrimp skewers while they are still warm. I like to spoon the remaining marinade on top before serving. You can garnish them with fresh chopped parsley and lemon slices. Enjoy!
