Grilled Shrimp Remoulade

This recipe, Grilled Shrimp Remoulade is from Diabetic Connect.  An updated and untraditional remoulade makes a tangy sauce for these spice-rubbed shrimp.  While this is a warm-weather favorite on the grill, you can also cook the shrimp under a preheated broiler.  Cook shrimp on a lightly sprayed broiler rack, about 4 inches from the heat, for a winter warmer any night of the week.
