Instructions
For the Grilled Shrimp: 1 Soak the skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes. 2 Make the marinade: Place olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, garlic, paprika, red pepper flakes, parsley salt, and pepper in a bowl. Give it a whisk until fully combined. 3 Place shrimp and marinade in the bowl and toss to coat. Cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes. 4 Skewer the shrimp: Thread the shrimp on skewers starting from the thickest part of the shrimp and arranging 5-6 shrimp per skewer. Place on a plate and set aside. 5 Grill: Heat the grill to 400 to 450 F degrees. Grill the shrimp skewers on direct heat for 2-3 minutes or as soon as it turns pink along the edges and then flip over and cook for another 2 minutes or until it is lightly charred. 6 Transfer the now-cooked shrimp onto a plate. When cool enough to handle, remove the shrimp from the skewers and set aside. For The Grilled Corn: 1 Fold the husk of each corn back leaf by leaf and tie them with a kitchen twine. 2 Brush each ear with oil on all sides and sprinkle them with salt. 3 Grill over medium-high heat until lightly charred on all sides, brushing with oil, turning and checking every few minutes. This takes about 10-12 minutes. 4 Transfer the now-grilled corn onto a cutting board and let it cool. When cool enough to handle, cut corn kernels from the cobs. Transfer to a bowl and set it aside. To Make The Dressing: 1 Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl and set it aside. To Assemble The Salad: 1 Place butter lettuce leaves, tomatoes, scallions, corn, and shrimp in a large salad bowl. Top it off with crumbled feta cheese. 2 Drizzle it with the dressing and give it a gentle toss. 3 Serve immediately.View original recipe
