Quick and Easy Shrimp


Quick and Easy Shrimp

Before I get off on a soap box about factory farming, major food industry and the main stream food media I want to stop and share what I call “quickie von quick quick shrimp”! It is fast, easy, healthy and “gasp” tasty! This recipe is a fast easy lunch or left over snack…never lacking on flavor...Never!

Place into plastic bag or bowl: Marinate 5 mins or 5 hours depends on your schedule :)
-1 lbs Fresh or frozen (thawed) raw shrimp (5-8 per person) 
-1 Teaspoon-ish of extra virgin olive oil (just enough to lightly cover shrimp)
-¼-1/2 fresh juice of a lemon or a squirt of bottled lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon liquid Cajun spice (optional)



Spices:
-2 shakes (1/4 tsp)  Cajun seasoning/ Steak seasoning or any Mrs. Dash Seasoning;
-2 shakes (1/4 tsp) garlic powder or ½ teaspoon minced garlic
-2 shakes (1/4 tsp) dill weed
-1 shake (1/8-1/4 ish tsp)of thyme
-1 shake (1/8 tsp) of black pepper



Place in a hot skillet 2-3 mins each side:)  Cook until pink on both sides :) Pair with a fresh spinach salad, quinoa, or steamed veggies for a complete meal! NO excuses this is fresh, fast food :) Enjoy
