Ingredients:

1/2 cup low fat plain yogurt
1 scallion, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2-1/2 tbsp. fresh dill
2-1/2 cups crumbled feta cheese
Salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 lb. extra large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 lemons, cut into 12 wedges

Directions:

Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. Light the grill.

In a medium mixing bowl, mix the yogurt with the scallion, 1/4 of the garlic and 1/2 tablespoon of the dill. Stir in the feta, mashing it slightly. In a large bowl, combine the remaining minced garlic and 2 tablespoons of dill and olive oil. Add shrimp and lemon, season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat well.

Thread 3-4 shrimp with 2 lemon wedges per skewer. Season with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-hot fire, turning occasionaly, until the shrimp are charred and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer skewers onto a platter and serve at once with Feta-Dill Sauce.

From Food and Wine June 2004. I made these for my Memorial day Party and everyone wanted the recipe. They are fabulous! The Feta Dill sauce has a nice clean, summery taste to it.
