My favorite way to cook shrimp is roasting it in the oven, which delivers amazing flavor for very little effort. This vibrant and colorful Roasted Shrimp with Indian Spices has a ton of flavor and a nice spicy kick.

1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

2 teaspoons garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ginger, minced
