For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the shrimp marinade for a hint of spice. Homemade mayonnaise will elevate the aioli to a new level. Try it if you have the time! If you don't have cured lemons, you can substitute with the zest of one lemon and a pinch of sea salt, but the flavor will be slightly different. Serve the grilled shrimp over a bed of arugula or mixed greens for a light and refreshing meal.
