Oven Garlic Roasted Shrimp

 

Garlic Roasted Shrimp

Ingredients

1 stick of UNSALTED BUTTER (Very Important)

2 Tablespoons of good Olive Oil

Garlic Clove Minced use 6 pods

2 large lemons

2 pounds of 8-10 Count Shrimp

1 teaspoon coarse sea salt

French Bread

Kosher salt and black pepper (Freshly ground black pepper preferred but not vital)

Fresh Rosemary leaves

¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes if desired

Directions:

Pre-Heat your oven to 400 degrees.

Peel and de-vein your shrimp leaning the very end tail part intact.

Arrange the shrimp in an oven-proof Large Sautee pan. Arrange in a circle as seen in the bottom picture below.

Melt butter over low heat in a Sautee pan. Add the olive oil, garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon of black pepper and cook over low heat for about a minute. Take off



the heat and add some lemon zest to your preference. We just add a little.

Pour the butter mixture over the shrimp. Slice a lemon into rounds about a quarter-inch thick and tuck them in between the shrimp.

Roast in the oven for 12- 15 minutes until the shrimp are firm and pink and cooked thru.

Remove from oven and cut a lemon in half and squeeze the juice onto the shrimp.

Serve with hot fresh hot French bread.
