In a cooking rut? Try one of these taste-tested, family-approved recipes using ground beef.

1 large red bell pepper
1 1/2 pound shrimp (13 to 15 per pound)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing the pan
8 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon oregano, chopped fresh
1/4 cup dry sherry or white wine
Cut the bell pepper in half crosswise, stem an de-seed it, then cut it into 1/4 inch thick strips. Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving the tails intact.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Brush a heavy large roasting pan with olive oil.
Combine the bell pepper, shrimp, garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, and the olive oil in a large bowl and mix well.
Spread the shrimp mixture out on the prepared roasting pan in a single layer. Season generously with salt and pepper. Roast for 10 minutes.
Turn the shrimp and bell pepper and sprinkle with oregano. Roast until the shrimp are just opaque in the center about 7 minutes. Transfer to a platter.
Place the roasting pan on a burner set at medium high heat. Add the sherry and boil, scraping up the browned bits about 2 minutes. Drizzle the pan juices over the shrimp mixture.

You need to love garlic with this recipe (we do). Easy to make. would cut down the garlic for guests probably.
Love smoked paprika! This is going on my "Gotta Try" list!

Loved this recipe! The smoked paprika is delightful (it's really key in this recipe so don't try to substitute regular paprika). The recipe is spicy but not "hot" and very, very easy to make. Could also be grilled kabob-style. Shrimp can be marinated in the mixture for up to a few hours before cooking (don't marinate too long)
