Preparation

Step 1

Combine lemon zest, lemon juice, oil, oregano, sage, chives, pepper and salt in a large bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the dressing in a small bowl. Add beans, tomatoes and celery to the large bowl; toss well.

Preheat grill to medium-high or place a grill pan over medium-high heat until hot.

Thread shrimp onto 6 skewers. (If using a grill pan, you don’t need to skewer the shrimp.)

Oil the grill rack (see Tip) or the grill pan. Grill the shrimp until pink and firm, turning once, about 4 minutes total. Serve the shrimp on the white bean salad, drizzled with the reserved dressing.
