Garlic Shrimp Scampi



















GARLIC SHRIMP SCAMPI

Ingredients
3 tablespoons chicken broth, low fat
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 lbs jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined
2 lemons, cut into wedges


Directions
In a large shallow dish, stir together the broth, wine, salt, oregano, pepper and garlic.

Add the shrimp and turn them to coat them well. Cover with plastic wrap. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Do not marinate longer than 2 hours or the shrimp will become tough.

Preheat the broiler. Remove the shrimp from the dish, reserving the marinade.

Thread the shrimp onto skewers, leaving a small space between each.

Brush the shrimp with the reserved marinade. Broil 4 inches from the heat for 2 minutes. Turn the shrimp over, brush with the marinade and broil for 1-3 minutes more or until the shrimp are no longer pink.

Serve with lemon wedges.
