Absolutely the very best! Make sure you double this recipe. Everyone loves the dipping sauce! A friend gave it to me years ago, it was from Gourmet magazine. Ingredients:
1 lb shrimp |
4 ounces unsalted butter, plus |
5 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1/2 cup chicken broth |
1/4 cup beer, at room temperature |
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 teaspoon black pepper |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary |
1/8 teaspoon dried oregano |
lots of crusty french bread |
Directions:
1. Combine mix and store in glass jar, tightly sealed.
2. In heavy skillet over high heat combine 4 oz.
3. butter,garlic, worcestershire and seasoning mix.
4. When butter is melted, add shrimp.
5. Cook for 2 minutes, shaking pan back and forth.
6. DON'T STIR!
7. Add remaining butter, stock and beer.
8. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, shaking the pan.
9. Remove from heat.
10. Serve immediately in bowl with lots of french bread to soak up the sauce.
11. *Shaking the pan in a back and forth motion, along with the additional of the stock helps keep the sauce from separating and having an oil texture.
12. Stirring doesn't do the same.
