Yummie!! I really love shrimps and this is one of the best recipes ever! You are adding a lot of fresh herbs but somehow the real shrimp flavour also remains and that is so good!! Further it looks awesome on a plate! Do note; they cool down quickly so serve them hot out of the oven.

Easy
5 – 10 euro pp

Ingredients for 4 pers.:

  • 4 Queen Shrimps
  • Fresh parsley
  • Fresh thyme
  • Fresh sage
  • Fresh oregano
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper

How to prepare it:

Pre-heat your oven to 200 degrees.

Poor some olive oil into a bowl. Peel the skin of the garlic, cut the garlic in half and remove the root. Squeeze the garlic into the oil and mix well. Put it aside for a moment.

Remove the twigs of the herbs and chop all the herbs.

Remove the heads of the shrimps. Cut the armor open at the front side of the shrimps and put the shrimp on its back in a (greased) oven dish.

Scoop a bit of the olive oil on top of the shrimps, divide well. Sprinkle some salt and pepper and the herbs on top (don’t be thrifty). Finish off with another scoop of the garlic oil.

Put the shrimps into the heated oven for 15 minutes. You’ll see that the color of the shrimps changes when they are ready from grey to pink.
