Lemon-Garlic Marinated Shrimp

From EatingWell: December 2006

Marinating precooked shrimp in garlic- and lemon-infused oil is a simple yet elegant appetizer.

Wonderful Fresh

This recipe was so AWESOME and everyone LOVED it. Will make it again. Everyone wanted the recipe. Had a rich garlic flavor and light on the lemon. Just right and refreshing.

Pros: Great taste and Fresh

Fabulous Fresh Flavors

I will make this dish again and again. Even when the temperature outside is 2 degrees, this dish was perfect as a chilled entree. I prepared the shrimp as directed and let the dish marinate for a few hours in the refrigerator, served it with toasty bread and the result was fantastic! If I shut my eyes I could see a beach way off in the distance!! Just wishing, I guess!

Pros: Light but filling!

Easy and Delicious

I made this as an appetizer for a gathering last night! Huge success! I made the marinade earlier in the day and only added the shrimp @ 2-3 hours before serving.
This will definitely take the place of "boring shrimp cocktail"
at any future party!

I made this last night as directed, but instead of tossing the cooked shrimp in a bowl, I added them to the skillet and allowed them to simmer for a few minutes because I didn't want to eat them cold. This in turn created a nice sauce. I served with whole-wheat pasta for a great dinner! Next time I would reduce the oil slightly (maybe 1.5 Tbsp) although making it as instructed wasn't greasy, and add a lil white wine when I add the shrimp into the skillet. Will definitely make again... this dish took about 10 minutes to make! So easy!!

My husband loved it too, and he's not a big shrimp eater. He said it was fresh and healthy!

I made it this way as well. Absolutley delicious! My sister doesn't like shrimp but she wanted to taste it because it smelled so good. She loved it! I will definitely be making this again!
