Easy but elegant. I like that.
3/4 - 1 1b medium shrimp, shelled (I used size 36/45)
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
zest of 1 lemon
1 lemon thinly sliced
1 lime thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dry oregano
1 tsp dry basil
salt and pepper to taste
3/4 - 1 lb spaghettini
olive oil
Line a baking sheet with foil and preheat the oven to 350F.
Rinse and drain shrimp in a colander.
Cut squares of butter onto the sheet and melt in oven 3-4 minutes. Meanwhile start cooking your pasta. Arrange sliced lemons and limes on the melted butter. Next top with shrimp and 1/2 the seasonings and all of the garlic.
Put them in the oven for 5-7 minutes.
Turn them over and sprinkle the rest of the seasonings and pop back in the oven for no more than about 3 minutes.
Remove the cooked lemon and lime slices. Drain pasta. Toss the shrimp and pan juices with the pasta along with the lemon zest and a few tbsps of olive oil.
See, pretty snazzy eh?
Serves 4
