SHRIMP PROVENCAL



Shrimp Provencal image

For a gourmet meal this is very easy to prepare. Leftovers reheat well the next day too! Instead of using fresh shrimp like the recipe originally called (took too long the first time I did it) we now use frozen, raw, peeled and it tastes the exact same, but with 1/4 of the time! This is great over rice and served with French bread.

SPICY GRILLED SHRIMP



Spicy Grilled Shrimp image

This Mark Bittman recipe from 1999 is big on flavor, but not too much effort. The hardest part is preparing the grill. It calls for just a few spices - garlic, lemon, paprika and cayenne - to yield an intense flavor. Feel free to adjust the cayenne to taste, and pay close attention to your paprika: For best results, make sure it's fresh. If it doesn't taste vibrant and smoky, it's time to buy more.
