Chili-Lime Shrimp

With the temperature heating up, I always crave seafood. Especially fresh shrimp.
This recipe is perfect for a relaxing afternoon by the water or in your backyard.

Ingredients:
-Cooking spray
-3/4 cup chopped green onions, divided
-1.5 lbs. peeled and deveined large shrimp
-1 tsp. chili powder
-2 tbsp. fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
-2 tbsp. butter
-1/2 tsp. salt

Heat large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add 1/2 cup onions to pan; coat onions with cooking spray. Cook 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add shrimp and chili powder to pan; cook 4 minutes or until shrimp are done, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Add juice, butter and salt to pan; stir until butter melts. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup onions.

Makes 4 servings.
