New Orleans Style Shrimp

Shrimp is one of my FAVORITE seafoods but I hate peeling them raw....blech! I like this recipe because it is perfect for a busy family and I don't have to touch the slimy little boogers. Make the marinade the night before. When you get home from work, throw the shrimp into a bowl with the marinade and go get in a run. When you get back, pack them in foil and toss them in the oven while you make a quick salad, some broccoli, a baked potato, or even some black beans. A full meal that totally nutritious and even allowed for at least a 3 mile run. What's not to love?!?
