New Orleans Barbeque Shrimp
Filed under: Cultural Foods, Seafood - Shrimp.
Description: It's hard for us to hold down on quantity, but this recipe is for 2 people. Probably Cajun because of simplicity & seasonings. Serve with French or Sourdough bread for dipping butter sauce. Have lots of napkins or paper towels ready, as this is VERY mess Ingredients: 2 pounds shrimp (16-20 or 21-25 shrimp per pound), heads left on 1 stick butter 1 stick margarine 2 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon chopped, fresh garlic dash of Worcestershire sauce dash of lemon juice 4 ounces beer or white wine 2 teaspoons of Creole seasoning (or as an alternative, add pinch of crushed red pepper, cayenne pepper, sea salt, white pepper, and black pepper) Directions: In iron skillet, saute shrimp in butter, margarine, olive oil (with seasonings) 4-5 minutes. Turn-over when shrimp are pink. Reduce heat, add garlic and saute 1 more minute. Add Worcestershire Sauce, wine or beer, and lemon juice, cover, and simmer 2-3 more minutes. Yum, yum.Is your mouth watering yet? Dish is best when refrigerated overnight, then reheated, as it intensifies flavors. Reheating directions: Place in preheated 400 degree F oven for 6-8 minutes or until butter bubbles. FYI: BBQ is a misnomer, since there is NO BBQ sauce in recipe, but that's what they call it in N'Awlins) Recipe Summary: Yield: serves 2 people Prep Time: We're usually chatting with friends when we make this +having a glass of wine. Probably 30 mins. Cook Time: 16 mins.
