Oh, please don’t you rock my boat… Skillet Jerk-Butter Shrimp served with warm bread for dunking! 🤤 This is one of my fave shrimp recipes to cook at home, Island inspired baby! and it’s just so easy to make ❤️ I could drink this sauce like water! Recipe serves✌️
INGREDIENTS:
15-20 shrimp, peeled, deveined, no tail (I used 31-40 shrimp per pound)
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
1 tsp curry powder
3-4 sprigs of fresh thyme
½ cup white wine
3-4 tbsp butter, but follow your heart on this one
½ shallot or ¼ onion, finely diced.
1 tomato, diced, seeds removed.
Cilantro or chives, chopped (optional)
Olive oil
Kosher Salt
Freshly ground black pepper (if not using chilli pepper flakes)
PREPARATION:
1️⃣ Make sure shrimp is clean and deveined. Pat dry using a paper towel. In a medium bowl, mix shrimp with garlic, red pepper flakes (or black pepper), curry powder, salt and about a tbsp of olive oil. Mix well.
2️⃣ In a pan or skillet, heat up about a tbsp of olive oil and sear the shrimp for about 30 seconds per side. Put shrimp on the side.
3️⃣ Using the same pan, add shallots/onions and thyme, sweat shallots for a minute or so and deglaze with white wine. Let simmer for one minute and add butter. Keep stirring while butter melts. Add diced tomato and chopped cilantro/chives, stir for a few seconds, and then add the shrimp back in the pan with all those juices. Mix well and season to taste. Serve with warm bread and ENJOY!
