Did you know that you can press unpeeled trimmed garlic cloves through a garlic press? The force of the press pushes the garlic out of its skin and through the holes of the press.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Fresh parsley

cup(s), flat-leaf, chopped

Fresh basil

cup(s), chopped

Garlic

2 clove(s), crushed through a press

Olive oil

4 tsp

Table salt

¼ tsp

Black pepper

¼ tsp

Uncooked shrimp

1½ pound(s), large, peeled and deveined

Lemon

4 wedge(s)

Instructions

  1. To make marinade, combine parsley, basil, garlic, oil, salt, and pepper in large zip-close plastic bag; add shrimp. Squeeze out air and seal bag; turn to coat shrimp (or use a glass dish with lid). Refrigerate, turning bag occasionally, at least 1 hour or up to 6 hours. Remove shrimp from marinade; discard marinade.
  2. Spray heavy nonstick ridged grill pan with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Add shrimp, in batches if needed, and cook until just opaque in center, about 2 minutes per side. Serve with lemon wedges.
  3. Serving size: 1/4 of shrimp
