Seafood is always healthy to eat and easy to prepare. I wouldn't classify this recipe as very healthy, but it sure is good. Because you never want to overcook seafood, it is a fast recipe to prepare. Personally I love shrimp because of the texture and flavor. This is an old-time Florida recipe and is good served with wild rice and vegetable (I like Broccoli).

The Ingredients for 2 servings:

3/4 to 1 - pound of raw shrimp, shelled and deveined
2 - tbsp. of butter
1/2 - teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
1 - Clove of garlic, minced
1 - tbsp. chopped chives
1 - tbsp. parsley flakes
1/8 - teaspoon of sea salt
1/8 - fresh ground black pepper
1/4 - cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 - cup dry Italian bread crumbs

Preparation:

Melt butter in medium skillet; add shrimp, Worcestershire, garlic, chives, parsley, salt and pepper. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes or until shrimp turn pink, stir mixture while cooking. Transfer shrimp into a casserole dish, sprinkle bread crumbs and parmesan cheese on top of shrimp. Pour butter mixture over all shrimp and bake @ 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown.

Serve on top of rice with vegetable and a wedge of lemon. Now that is old-time Florida good eating. I think I know what I'm cooking up tomorrow.
