Darcy's Sherry Garlic Shrimp

Here's a recipe that I love that involves shrimp. It's yummy over rice or pasta with a nice side of a green veggie. (I had to write this up for someone, so I thought I would add it here since the work is all done.)

1 1/2 lb. large shrimp, shelled and deveined
1/2 cup olive oil
3 Tbsp. dry sherry
2-3 large cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. thyme crumbled
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. red pepper
2 lemons, cut into wedges
4 parsley sprigs

Arrange shrimp in a single layer, slightly apart in a shallow baking dish.
Combine olive oil, sherry, garlic, thyme, salt, and red pepper. Pour over shrimp.
Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for 4 minutes. Turn shrimp over and bake 4-6 minutes more. Shrimp will be ready when pink, firm, and barely opaque.
Serve with pan juices. Garnish with lemon wedges and parsley sprigs.*

*Sometimes we eat this without the lemon wedges and parsley sprigs, though it is nice to have those...
