Ingredients:

1 lb. fresh, not frozen med. shrimp
Olive-oil flavored cooking spray
1/2 c. unflavored, dry bread crumbs
1 tbsp. minced fresh parsley
1/2 tsp. minced garlic (bottled minced garlic is fine)
1/2 tsp. salt or to taste
Freshly ground pepper
Lemon wedges

Instructions:

Preheat broiler. Shell and devein the shrimp, leaving the tail on if possible which creates a more interesting and attractive look; this may be done a day ahead. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels.
Place the shrimp on a tray and spray lightly non-stick cooking spray to cover. Sprinkle half the bread crumbs over them. Turn the shrimp over and repeat.

In a mixing bowl large enough to hold the shrimp, combine the parsley and garlic with some salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and mix well. Spray with a bit more cooking spray if it looks too dry. Let marinate from 30 minutes to 3 hours. Place the shrimp on skewers, about 6 per brochette.

Place on a baking sheet about 4 inches from the heat and cook 3 minutes on 1 side and 2 minutes on the other; a crisp golden crust should form from the bread crumbs. Serve hot with lemon wedges.
