Another loosely followed recipe. Chosen by Penny.
A fairly simple recipe. Marinate the shrimp in some herbs, garlic and lemon juice. Cook it up.
I didn't actually used the specified herbs. I used random unidentified herbs from my garden. The only herbs that are doing really well in the garden so far is this random herb mix that I got. I don't actually know what most of the herbs are in it but most of them seem to look like lettuces and some parsley. I recognized that one.
I had mine over an herb salad. This actually would have been good with that risotto from earlier in the month. If I had thought ahead I would have had them together. Oh well.
I cooked them in a skillet rather than a grill pan. I hate cleaning a grill pan. It takes forever to get down into all the little grooves of a grill pan and I never seem to get it clean so I almost always opt for a skillet or griddle over the grill pan. Someone please tell me I'm not the only one. Maybe I need to cook a bunch of bacon on it to get a nice season on it. Maybe I'll just stick with the skillet.
PS I uploaded my pic of the spring risotto. Are you proud of me?

I actually cooked the risotto and shrimp at the same time and they were good together. Your shrimp look great. Thanks for cooking with me.
Looks good on the salad. Thanks for the comment on the grill pan - I was thinking I wanted one but now I might change my mind.
