Step 1
Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Combine with 3 tbsp olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Step 2
Toss shrimp with onion and bell pepper until evenly coated. Thread onto skewers, alternating proteins and vegetables.
Step 3
Arrange skewers on a sheet pan. Drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Place under the broiler 6 inches from heat.
Step 4
Broil 5–6 minutes until shrimp are opaque and edges char, shaking the pan halfway. Shrimp should feel firm when pressed.
Step 5
Transfer to a platter. Scatter parsley over top and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
