Vinaigrette:
1 large seedless orange, peeled and sectioned
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons fat free mayonnaise
1 teaspoon fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

Salad:
1 package (9 ounces) frozen artichoke hearts, thawed

To prepare vinaigrette, place all vinaigrette ingredients except oil in blender or food processor; process until smooth. Pour mixture into medium non-metal bowl and whisk in oil until well blended. Fold artichoke hearts into vinaigrette. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight.

Peel shrimp, leaving tails attached. De-vein and butterfly shrimp. Bring orange juice to a boil in medium saucepan. Add shrimp and cook about 2 minutes or just until they turn pink and opaque.

To serve, place about 3 artichoke hearts on each of 6 plates. Top each serving with 2 shrimp. Drizzle vinaigrette over tops. Garnish with fresh Italian parsley, if desired.
