I would toss the shrimp in a ladolemono (Greek oil and lemon dressing) and then either grill them or sauté them. Here's a recipe for the grilled version. https://www.greekboston.com/food/shrimp-kabobs-recipe/
I want to add that you shouldn't marinate it more than an hour because the acid from the lemon will cook the shrimp. One hour is perfect, though.

The best shrimp dish i’ve come across is shrimp youvetsi. It’s shrimp in a red sauce with orzo, I love it! This is a recipe I found on google: https://www.kalofagas.ca/2015/03/21/shrimp-giouvetsi-γαρίδες-γιουβέτσι/

Shrimp saganaki with feta, tomatoes and small Greek chilli peppers is a great appetizer. In my own version I use leftovers (if any) on linguini pasta and fresh parsley on top of it.

Enjoying Cooking with Greek Honey

One of the things I love most about Greek honey is its versatility. You can use it in so many different ways in the kitchen. I've drizzled it over Greek yogurt for breakfast, mixed it into salad dressings for a touch of sweetness, and even used it as a glaze for roasted vegetables. The depth of flavor it adds to dishes is truly remarkable.
But perhaps my favorite way to use Greek honey is in baking. It adds a wonderful depth of flavor to cakes, cookies, and pastries. I recently made a batch of baklava using Greek honey, and it was a game-changer. The honey soaked into the layers of phyllo dough, creating a sweet and sticky treat that was absolutely irresistible.
I go out of my way to buy it - if I can't find it locally, I get it online. When I go to Greece, I get some in Greece, too.

How to learn about different regional cuisines in Greece?

I have learned so much about Greek cuisine by being on this forum! I know that there are standard recipes that everyone seems to cook.
For example, you can get souvlaki all over. Everyone seems to serve a village salad with slight variations. Most regions seem to make moussaka. There are tons of others.
I have also noticed that each region has their own specialties. How do you go about learning about them?
