Spicy Lemon Garlic Shrimp - SRC Reveal

My assignment this month for the Secret Recipe Club  is Hilary's  blog baking bad .  In my opinion, she bakes rather 'good'!  Her recipe index is awesome!  I chose to prepare the Spicy Lemon Garlic Shrimp.

I always have some kind of shrimp for the holidays - usually shrimp cocktail, but this one caught my eye.  It's simple to make, has a bit of a kick - and lot's of butter! :o)  The only change I made was to use peeled shrimp and some black pepper.

from Pioneer Woman Cooks
Ingredients:
2 pounds Raw Shrimp, Deveined, Shells On
2 sticks Cold Unsalted Butter Cut Into Pieces
1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
4 cloves Garlic, Peeled
1/4 cup Fresh Parsley
1/2 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper
1 whole Lemon, Juiced
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Rinse frozen shrimp to separate, then arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet.
In the bowl of a food processor, add cold butter, garlic, lemon juice, salt, parsley, and red pepper. Pulse until combined. Sprinkle cold butter crumbles over the shrimp.
Bake until shrimp is opaque and butter is hot and bubbly.
Serve with hot crusty bread. Peel and eat the shrimp, then dip the bread into the butter in the bottom of the pan.
