| BROILED SHRIMP WITH GREEK SALAD |
| 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil |
| 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
| 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
| 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
| 1 head romaine lettuce, cut crosswise into 1-inch strips |
| 1 large tomato, cut into wedges |
| 2 small cucumbers, peeled if waxy, and cut into large chunks |
| 1 small red onion, thinly sliced |
| 1/2 pound large black olives, preferably kalamata |
| 1. Heat broiler. Peel shrimp, leaving tails intact; remove veins from backs. Place shrimp in a small |
| bowl, and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. |
| 2. Thread 3 shrimp onto a metal skewer; place on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining shrimp |
| and three more skewers. Broil until tops are browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip; cook until browned and |
| cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Set shrimp aside. |
| 3. In a bowl, whisk together lemon juice, oregano, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 |
| teaspoon pepper. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in remaining 1/2 cup olive oil. Set aside. |
| 4. Divide romaine among four plates. Place some of the tomato, cucumbers, onion, and olives on |
| each plate, and top with a reserved shrimp skewer. Drizzle with reserved dressing, and serve. |
