LEMON-DILL SHRIMP WITH GRECIAN ORZO SALAD
I've been making this recipe for years. I found it in the Weber's Art of the Grill cookbook. It perfectly combines light and intense flavors.

Steps:
- TO MAKE THE VINAIGRETTE:.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, dill, garlic, salt and pepper.
- Place the shrimp in a medium bowl.
- Pour 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette over the shrimp and toss to coat thoroughly. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- TO MAKE THE SALAD:.
- Bring a medium saucepan three-quarters full of salted water to a boil.
- Add the orzo pasta and cook until al dente. Drain and place in a bowl.
- Add the remaining vinaigrette and the feta cheese and toss well.
- Add the bell pepper, kalamata olives, scallions, and oregano. Toss again.
- Thread 4 shrimp onto each skewer, bending each shrimp almost in half so that the skewer passes through it twice.
- Place the shrimp directly over high heat and grill, turning once, until the shrimp is just opaque inside with lightly browned edges, 4 to 5 minutes total.
- Serve the shrimp immediately over the pasta.
