Ingredients
Dipping Sauce:

1/4 cup reduced-fat Greek yogurt, such as Fage 2 percent
2 tablespoons capers, chopped
1 teaspoon agave nectar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

1 tablespoon cracked black pepper

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
- For the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, yogurt, capers, agave, lemon zest, cayenne and salt. Set aside to let the flavors marry.
- For the shrimp: In a medium bowl, mix together the shrimp, olive oil, black pepper, pink pepper and salt. Toss well to coat. Spread the rosemary sprigs on a rimmed baking sheet and pour the shrimp on top. Bake until the shrimp are pink and opaque throughout, 8 minutes.
