Baked Shrimp with Lemon & Chives

This has all the elements of a perfect meal.

• Easy – uses only a few ingredients
• Fast (only takes 15 minutes….longer if you have to peel the shrimp first)
• Healthy
• Delicious – packed with flavor

There had been some concern over whether or not shrimp was healthy. Dr. Christianson addresses that HERE. 

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds raw (uncooked) shrimp
• 1 lemon
• chives (fresh or freeze-dried)
• pepper *optional

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425
2. Peel shrimp (if it needs it)
3. Line cookie sheet with unbleached parchment paper (for easy clean-up)
4. Lay shrimp on the sheet so they don’t overlap
5. Squeeze 1/2 lemon juice over shrimp
6. Season with chives, and pepper (optional)
7. Bake for 15 minutes.
8. Optional – use the remaining 1/2 lemon on the shrimp afterward, OR slice it and use it in your water.

Be sure to pair it with 1/2 plate of greens, and carbs.  Use 1/2 cup carbs for a lunch serving, OR 3/4 cup carbs for a dinner serving to make it Adrenal Reset Diet friendly.

Enjoy!
