Shrimp over Cumin-Scented White Northern Beans

Ingredients:

1 small jalapeno pepper(s), cored, seeded and minced (use 1 pepper)
1 small garlic clove(s), minced
15 oz canned white norther beans, undrained
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 pound shrimp, large, peeled
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice, about the juice from 1 lime
1/4 tsp paprika, hot
2 Tbsp chives, minced

Directions:

1. Coat a small pot with nonstick cooking spray. Add jalapeño and garlic; sauté over medium heat 2 minutes. Add beans, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper; simmer 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, place shrimp in a bowl with lime juice and paprika; toss to coat.
3. Coat sheet pan with cooking spray. Arrange shrimp on cookie sheet. Place 4 inches under broiler and broil 3 to 4 minutes. Turn over and broil until cooked through, about 3 minutes more.
4. Spoon beans onto a large serving plate. Top with shrimp and sprinkle with chives.

Yields about 1 cup per serving.
