Using a basting brush, lightly coat the grill grates with extra virgin olive oil to prevent the shrimp from sticking.

Place the marinated shrimp on the grill, cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until they are plump and have nice charred marks.

In the same large bowl, add the remaining pesto and the rest of the lemon juice. Toss the grilled shrimp in the bowl to coat them evenly in the pesto mixture.
