4 large wood skewers, soaked in water for at least 2 hours
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, olive oil, black pepper, garlic, and basil. Toss to coat evenly. Place two shrimp on a skewer, then a lemon wedge. Continue until each skewer has 3 wedges and 6 shrimp. Grill the shrimp until just cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes per side
