In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, chopped fresh oregano, lemon juice, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper. Whisk well to combine.

Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the marinade, tossing gently to ensure all shrimp are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour. Do not marinate for longer than 1 hour as the lemon juice can start to 'cook' the shrimp.

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes while the shrimp marinates. This prevents them from burning on the grill.

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

Thread the marinated shrimp onto the soaked skewers, typically 4-5 shrimp per skewer, depending on their size. Do not overcrowd the skewers.

Place the shrimp skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 2-4 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque and are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them, as they can become rubbery.

Remove the skewers from the grill and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.
