Broiled Shrimp Scampi
Prep: 20 minutes Total: 20 minutes
This is a great way to cook with less oil. A broiler heats from the top, so you need very little oil to prevent food from sticking to the cooking surface.

- 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails left on, patted dry
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Coarse salt and ground pepper

- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions
- Heat broiler with rack set 4 inches from heat. Place shrimp on a large broilerproof rimmed baking sheet.
