I got this recipe many years ago from a local restaurant in New Jersey. The restaurant is still there, so I know this is a good one ! When I tell people how easy it is, they are always surprised. You can serve this over rice as a main course (yellow or white rice), or just serve it in the casserole dish with plenty of delicious Portuguese bread. Ingredients:
2 lbs shrimp, raw and peeled. no tails |
1/2 cup margarine (or butter) |
6 garlic cloves, fresh and crushed |
1/2 cup dry white wine (can use white cooking wine) |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1 lemon (need about 1 1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. For two pounds of raw, peeled shrimp. 3. Saute: One stick margarine (I use butter). 4. With Six cloves crushed garlic 5. Slowly, on low heat, heat the butter and garlic. Do not burn the garlic ! 6. Then 7. Add: 1/2 Cup dry white wine (can use cooking wine). 8. 1/2 Crushed Red Pepper 9. 1 1/2 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice. 10. Place raw, peeled shrimp in a 2 1/2 quart casserole dish and pour the sauce over the shrimp. Cover and bake 20 minutes. 11. You're done ! Serve over yellow or white rice or alone with plenty of bread . |
