Looking for a new dinner idea tonight? Our Fit Chef and Athlete Kendall Lou Schmidt- Fitness Model, Personal Trainer, Personal Trainer got you covered... Recipe: GARLIC AND HERB SHRIMP NUTRITION FOR AN 8OZ SERVING (18 MEDIUM SHRIMP): CAL 260 FAT 7.8G CARB 6G PRO 40G INGREDIENTS: - 1 pound Raw Tail-On Peeled Shrimp (Medium Size, approximately 36 shrimp) - 1 tablespoon Olive Oil - 1 tablespoon Lime Juice - 1 1/2 tablespoon Minced Garlic - 1 tablespoon Stevia - 1 teaspoon Paprika - 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning - 1 teaspoon Basil DIRECTIONS: 1. Gather your ingredients and combine them all in a container that can be well sealed. 2. Toss the shrimp until they are evenly coated with the seasoning. 3. Place the shrimp in the refrigerator and allow it to marinate for 2 hours or longer. 4. Remove the shrimp from the refrigerator and thread them on to skewers. I find it is best to use a rack like the one shown. If you are not using a rack, be sure to lightly spray the surface they are cooking on to prevent them from sticking. 5. The shrimp can be grilled or broiled. TO GRILL: allow the barbecue to warm up at medium heat before placing the shrimp on the grill. TO BROIL: set your broiler on high and allow the oven to heat up a bit before placing the shrimp in the over. Set the oven rack about 8 inches from the broiler. 6. Cook the shrimp for 8 to 10 minutes, turning over once after 4 to 5 minutes. When the shrimp are done they will be opaque instead of transparent, and the tails will have turned pink. 7. Serve warm and enjoy!! Check out KendallLouSchmidt for more healthy recipes!
