Marinate the shrimp: In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 15–30 minutes.
Preheat the grill: Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates.
Skewer the shrimp (optional): Thread shrimp onto skewers, about 4–5 per skewer, for easy grilling and flipping.
Grill the shrimp: Grill shrimp for 2–3 minutes per side, or until opaque, pink, and lightly charred. Do not overcook.
Serve: Remove from heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges. Enjoy over rice, salad, or pasta, or as part of a seafood platter.
