We give lemon-garlic grilled shrimp a fantastic flavor boost with a drizzle of smoky roasted pepper vinaigrette. Enjoy the shrimp over crunchy salad greens and use the sauce as your dressing, serve them with toothpicks for a wonderfully spicy appetizer, or serve them over rice with grilled veggies for a heartier main course.
