I love shrimp!!!! And I love that it's low on calories. The below recipe is SO delicious. It's under 400 calories and can be eaten just as the recipe goes or over pasta or rice... but then watch your calories.

Ingredients
1 pound uncooked large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 (8 ounce) can (8 to 10 count) artichoke hearts in water, drained
1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 lemon, juiced
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon finely shredded imported Romano cheese

Directions
1.Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2.Arrange the shrimp in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Gently squeeze any excess liquid from the artichoke hearts, break the hearts into quarters, and arrange in spaces between the shrimp. Sprinkle the bread crumbs and parsley over the shrimp and artichoke hearts; sprinkle lemon juice over the crumbs.
3.Melt butter with garlic in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; drizzle the butter mixture over the bread crumbs. Sprinkle the top with Romano cheese.
4.Bake in the preheated oven until the crumbs and cheese brown lightly and the shrimp turn opaque and orange-pink in color, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve hot.

Sounds great, but how many does it serve? Did I miss that? Because a half-cup of butter has, like, 800 or so calories doesn't it?

Serves 4... but could really serve up to 6. Warms up well too.

Regarding the butter... you could easily cut it back to 1/4 Cup.
