What is "oregano pepper" ? It’s an ingredient in a recipe I’m trying…

I know what oregano is, and have some, but I’m not sure this is that. And I have regular pepper. The other ingredient is soy sauce; it’s a shrimp marinade.

The search engines only seem to recognize oregano.

Didn't know myself, so I let the AI look up the differences from below...

Orégano del campo and orégano silvestre are often used interchangeably to refer to wild oregano, typically found in natural settings.

Oregano pepper usually refers to a specific variety of oregano with a peppery flavor,

while orégano mexicano (Mexican oregano) is distinct from Mediterranean oregano, offering a stronger, citrusy flavor profile and is commonly used in Mexican cuisine.
