Ingredients:

Serving

8 tbsp (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 tsp minced garlic
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 tsp worcestershire sauce
2 lb medium shrimp, peeled, deveined, with tails-on
fat fish blue hennessey cream sauce, recipe follows
wild rice and crusty bread , for serving, optional
1/2 cup finely diced green, red or yellow bell peppers, for garnish

Directions:

Melt butter in large saute pan. Add garlic, black pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until garlic starts to sizzle. Add shrimp and saute until pink and almost cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add Fat Fish Blue Hennessey Cream Sauce and continue simmering until reduced to a thick creamy consistency and the shrimp are cooked through, about 3 minutes. Serve over rice with crusty bread on the side, if desired, and garnish with diced bell peppers.
Fat Fish Blue Hennessey Cream Sauce:
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1 tablespoon cognac (recommended: Hennessey)
1 tablespoon shrimp base (bouillon)
2 cups heavy cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in the water and set aside. Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat and add shallots. Saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Carefully add cognac and simmer until alcohol vaporizes, about 1 minute. Add shrimp base, heavy cream and salt and pepper, to taste. Simmer while stirring for 3 minutes. Add cornstarch mixture and simmer, while stirring, until thickened. Set aside and keep warm.
