This shrimp dish really hits the spot when it comes to lip-tingling heat. All you have to do is season the shrimp with store-bought jerk seasoning and let it marinate for about 10 minutes. Just be sure not to let the shrimp go for much longer, as seafood doesn't need to marinate for as long as other meat like chicken, pork, or steak. The spicy seasoning is then nicely balanced out by chopped parsley and fresh lime juice. You can turn the shrimp into a meal by serving with two grilled bell peppers, thickly sliced, and a bowl of brown rice alongside.
