Rosemary Roasted Shrimp
6 each large woody rosemary sprigs. These are to be skewers so they must be long and woody.
40 each large (16/20 or larger) shrimp, peeled and de-veined, shells reserved. Small shrimp do not work.
Break rosemary into 8-inch long stalks. Strip all but very tips of leaves. Chop the leaves, no stem pieces, and reserve. Pierce each shrimp slightly with the tip of a sharp knife. Thread the shrimp onto the skewers.
