Roasted Garlic Shrimp

Roasted Garlic Shrimp

Ingredients:
1/3 cup olive oil
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp thyme (or rosemary)
dash or two of salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 pound fresh shrimp, no shells or tails
5 cloves garlic, minced

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a baking pan combine olive oil, lemon juice and thyme (or rosemary).This mixture should cover the bottom of the pan. If it doesn't add more. Bake in oven for 10 minutes, checking every few minutes, if it looks like it is getting too brown pull it out early.

Remove pan from oven, add butter and move it around a little to melt, add shrimp and garlic. At this point I added a little more lemon juice. Toss the shrimp around to coat on all sides. Bake for 6-8 minutes a side or until shrimp turn pink and just start to curl, check often.

I serve this with rice, but angel hair pasta would also be good.
