Greek Shrimp Scampi

Broiling the shrimp lowers the amount of fat needed and speeds up the cooking process. You won't believe this is a light meal with 215 cals and 6.5 grams of fat.
Greek seasoning can be found in the spice aisle of the grocery store.

Serves 4
1 1/2- 2 pounds of large shrimp, peeled and deveined and tail left on
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 teaspoons greek seasoning
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons lemon juice
minced fresh italian parsley

Heat the broiler to high. On a rimmed baking sheet, lined with foil or a silpat, place the shrimp.
Toss the shrimp with the garlic, salt, pepper, greek seasoning and olive oil. Spread the shrimp out into a single layer. Broil 4 inches from the heat for about 6 minutes or until the shrimp has just turned pink. Toss with lemon juice and parsley. Serve with the tomato pilaf below and lemon wedges.
