BROILED
SHRIMP
INGREDIENTS:
1
pound shrimp fresh or frozen (thawed) - peeled and deveined
1
/4 cup olive oil
seafood
seasoning (I prefer Old Bay)
DIRECTONS:
I
usually cheat and buy a package of frozen uncooked shrimp that has
already been peeled and deveined. Also, I think it is easier to put
the shrimp on skewers before broiling. Baste shrimp lightly with oil
and sprinkle seasoning on them. Broil on one side for 2-3 minutes,
turn baste and sprinkle again - then broil for 2-3 more minutes.
Serve with cocktail sauce.

grits cooked according to package directions (instant is okay too)

Fry
bacon in frying pan until crisp. Remove bacon and crumble when
cooled. Add shrimp to bacon drippings and toss until pink (about 2
minutes). Remove shrimp with slotted spoon and set aside. Blend
together flour and coffee and stir in frying pan with remaining
drippings (if any) to make a brown gravy. Add garlic, onion, salt and

before serving.
