Barbecue Shrimp
This signature Creole-Sicilian favorite from New Orleans is reborn with a low-fat shortcut or two. The peels are left on the shrimp so they can add flavor to the lush, buttery-peppery sauce. The bread means no sauce goes to waste.
Yield: 5 servings (serving size: 5 ounces shrimp with sauce and 2 bread slices)
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup fat-free Caesar dressing
- 1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter or stick margarine
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
- 5 bay leaves
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 pounds large shrimp
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- 10 (1-ounce) slices French bread baguette
- 10 lemon wedges
Preparation
Combine the first 11 ingredients in a large nonstick skillet; bring to a boil. Add shrimp, and cook 7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add wine, and cook 1 minute or until shrimp are done. Serve with bread and lemon wedges.

All we have to say is FABULOUS.. Super easy to make.. We put a little more hot sauce and used two fresh jalepenos from the garden.. No leftovers. Will make this one again and again.07/20/09

I'm from New Orleans...& this blows most local restaurant bbq shrimp recipes to bits! Super easy! Taste incredible! Great made with ruby red prawns from the Gulf!!!! It's the only bbq shrimp recipe I ever use. And it's much lighter than the traditional bbq recipe. Added bonus!06/12/09
