Ingredients List
6–8 scampi
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cucumber, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon olive oil (for salad)
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
Lemon wedges for serving
Steps
Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. In a bowl, toss the scampi with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Place the seasoned scampi on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are pink and slightly charred. Remove from the grill and set aside to rest.
In a separate bowl, combine the diced cucumber, chopped tomatoes, sliced red onion, Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese.
Drizzle the salad with olive oil and red wine vinegar, and sprinkle with fresh oregano. Toss the ingredients together gently to combine.
Serve the grilled scampi on top of the Greek salad. Garnish with lemon wedges and extra oregano, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
