Method

1. Scrub the potatoes and pat dry with paper towels. With a fork, pierce each potato in 3 or 4 places. Arrange the potatoes; spoke fashion, in the microwave on a paper towel. 2. Microwave on high for 10 minutes. Turn the potatoes and rotate from the front to the back of the microwave (if your oven does not have a carousel). Microwave for 8 to 10 minutes, or until tender. Test for doneness by inserting a small sharp knife in to the center of each potatoe. Let stand for 5 minutes. 3. Meanwhile, place the shrimp in a medium bowl. Add the oil, lemon juice, basil, and salt. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. 4. Cut the potatoes lengthwise down the center and squeeze to open. Spoon the shrimp mixture over the top. Note: If desired, mince a clove of garlic and add to the shrimp mixture.
