Instructions

Thread the shrimp onto metal skewers or bamboo skewers soaked in water for 15 minutes. Brush both sides with oil and season with salt, pepper, and a light sprinkling of sugar to enhance the flavor.
Preheat your gas grill with all burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes. Clean the grill rack with a wire brush and lightly brush with oil. Close the lid and allow the grill to return to temperature. Grill the shrimp for about 2 minutes per side, until fully cooked and nicely browned.
In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, feta cheese, olives, oregano, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and 2 teaspoons of vinegar. Remove the shrimp from the skewers and add them to the bowl. Gently toss all the ingredients together until well coated. Set aside; this mixture can be prepared an hour in advance.
When you're ready to serve, drizzle the remaining olive oil over the baby spinach in a large bowl, and add a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of vinegar and toss again. Divide the spinach among four large plates and top with a portion of the flavorful shrimp mixture.
