In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Whisk until well blended.

Marinate the Shrimp
Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Grilling

Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

Skewer the Shrimp
Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent burning).
