Broiled Herb-Marinated Shrimp

This recipe is not my own; this came from Cooking Light magazine.  It was so easy for a quick weeknight dinner, and healthy too.

Serves 4

Ingredients:

3/4 Cup fresh cilantro leaves
3/4 Cup fresh parsley
1/2 Cup fresh basil
3 Tbsp olive oil
3 Tbsp orange juice
1 Tbsp lime juice
1/2 Tsp cumin
1/2 Tsp salt
1/2 Tsp pepper
2 Garlic cloves
24 Jumbo shrimp (I used the frozen, peeled and deveined shrimp, thawed)
Cooking spray

Method:

Combine all ingredients except for cooking spray and shrimp in a food processor.  Blend until smooth.  Toss shrimp in marinade and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat broiler to high heat.  Spray baking sheet with cooking spray, and spread out shrimp evenly on pan.  Broil 5 inches from heat for 2 minutes on each side, until shrimp are pink and done.
