quick and easy meals for 1 or 2

Fiery Shrimp

This is gooooood and easy serves 2

1/2 cups (1 sticks) melted butter

2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice

1/2 tbsp black pepper

1 tbsp. tablespoons hot sauce what we like ,,you can’t get in the states,go with texas pete if available

1 (or 2 ) cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoons salt

1 pound unpeeled medium shrimp

1 lemon, thinly sliced

Italian bread, for dipping

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Stir together the butter, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, pepper, hot sauce, garlic, and salt. Pour half this mixture into a large heatproof dish. Layer half the shrimp and half the lemon slices in the dish; then form a second layer with the remaining shrimp and lemon slices, and pour remaining sauce into the dish. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, stirring twice. Lots of Italian bread for dipping in the spicy butter sauce.

I recommend a good pinot grigio,, maybe Santa margarita and some penne pasta aglia de olio. And some spinach salad. Life is short ,,,enjoy it!!!
