Some of you may remember back in the Fifties, a psychologist named Theodore Rubin, wrote a diet book and called it "A Thin Book by a Formerly Fat Psychologist." In it he included this excellent recipe that I make to this day.

Time 20m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 lbs raw shrimp (21 to 30 size)
Tabasco sauce
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
1/2 lemon, juice of

Steps:

  • Spray a non-stick skillet with non-stick spray that is butter flavored.
  • Shell and devein the shrimp and rinse them under cold running water (or buy them shelled and cleaned.).
  • Heat the skillet over moderate heat. When it is heated add the shrimp. Cook, covered, turning the shrimp once, until they are pink (about 3 to 5 minutes. Do not overcook!
  • Remove shrimp from the heat and sprinkle them with the Tabasco, Worcestershire, dill, and lemon juice. Stir well and serve hot. I like to double the sauce so there is plenty.
  • To serve: This entree goes well with boxed yellow (saffron) rice and a green or red vegetable.
