Shrimp recipe

For you Leslie…anything:D

I looked through all my emails and found the one with the shrimp recipe in it.  So here we are…

4 Minute Spicy Garlic Shrimp

Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray – Show:  30 Minute Meals – Episode:  Knife and Fork Optional     

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 

 4 cloves garlic, crushed away from skin

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

24 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails in tact, ask for easy peels at your fish counter

2 teaspoons grill or steak seasoning blend (recommended: Montreal Seasoning by McCormick)

or coarse salt and pepper

1 lemon, zested and juiced

2 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves, a handful   

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, garlic, red pepper flakes and shrimp. Season with grill seasoning or salt and pepper and cook shrimp 3 minutes or until just pink. Toss with lemon zest, juice and chopped parsley. Remove shrimp to a serving platter leaving the garlic cloves in the pan.

And just for the record, the Montreal Steak Seasoning is really really good.  I think that is what gives such good flavor to the shrimp.  I also put it in some chicken strips that I baked the other day and it was delicious!
