This is such an amazing recipe. You won’t believe how easy it is to make and it is absolutely delicious. The Lent season is the perfect time to spoil your family and serve this recipe. It will easily feed 6.

2 pounds of frozen easy peel shrimp (available at your local meat market)
1 stick of butter
1 fresh lemon
1 oz. of Italian Salad Dressing Mix

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Run the frozen shrimp under running water and remove the shells. When the oven is preheated, melt a stick of butter on a cookie sheet (with a one inch lip around the edge). When the butter is melted, slice the lemon and place it on top of the melted butter. Put the shrimp on top of the lemon. Sprinkle the shrimp with the Italian Salad Dressing Mix, and photo (6)bake in the 350 degree oven for exactly 15 minutes.

I cooked fresh asparagus as the shrimp was cooking and had a fantastic dinner.  The picture to the right shows 2 pounds of shrimp cooked as directed.  Is this a lot of food, or what?  Look at the size of the shrimp!

This is gourmet dining without the cost, fuss or muss. The leftover shrimp will be fantastic photo (7)on cooked whole wheat linguine or rice.

Enjoy!
