In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, smoked paprika, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper. Whisk well to create the marinade.

Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the bowl with the marinade. Toss gently to ensure all shrimp are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour, to allow the flavors to meld.

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

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F) or a grill pan over medium-high heat. If using an oven, preheat the broiler to high with the rack 4-6 inches from the heat source.

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

Place the shrimp skewers on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque and are cooked through. If broiling, cook for 2-4 minutes per side, watching carefully to prevent burning.

Remove the skewers from the heat and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately with lime wedges.
