Preheat your broiler to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly grease it with cooking spray. In a mixing bowl, place the peeled and deveined shrimp and add canola oil. Cover the bowl and gently toss until the shrimp are evenly coated. In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, cayenne pepper, thyme leaves, and ground oregano. Add this spice mix to the shrimp bowl, cover, and toss gently until the shrimp are fully coated with the flavorful blend. Arrange the shrimp in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
