Put a little boing in your shrimp. Avery Island, LA is the home of Tabasco Sauce. The island is basically sort of a salt hill in the wetlands, formed by ancient deposits. A lot of that salt ends up in your Tabasco Sauce, along with some nice ripe red chile peppers and wine vinegar. It's one of my favorites, and this recipe adds a little Tabasco pizazz to your party. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter |
1 lb breaded shrimp (frozen or your own) |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 medium onion, minced |
1 clove garlic, minced |
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can beef broth |
1/2 cup water |
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce |
1 1/2 teaspoons prepared mustard (ballpark is good!) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon tabasco sauce |
1 lemon, juice of |
Directions:
1. Cook breaded shrimp in 3 tablespoons butter until browned.
2. Remove from heat and keep warm.
3. For the sauce: Saute onion and garlic in the 2 tablespoons butter.
4. Add remaining ingredients except lemon juice.
5. Heat to boiling; reduce heat and simer for 15 minutes or until liquid is reduced to about 1 cup.
6. Add the lemon juice.
7. Add shrimp and toss to coat a bit.
8. Serve as an appetizer.
