Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

32 raw peeled large shrimp
1/4 lb unsalted butter
mushroom (optional)
tomatoes (optional)
onion (optional)
bell pepper, sliced (optional)
1 teaspoon ground basil
1 teaspoon ground thyme
1 teaspoon garlic
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt (sea salt is best)
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon sweet paprika

Steps:

  • Mix spice ingredients thoroughly in a small bowl (make a double or triple batch and store the remainder for later use!) Dredge shrimp through the mixture.
  • Place a large skillet over a very high heat, and melt the butter.
  • Place the shrimp in the skillet and turn heat down to medium.
  • Cook on both sides for approximately 7 minutes (maybe less) each- pay attention to the shrimp as they cook quickly; when the shrimp curl, they are done.
  • Optional – sprinkle the vegetables with the spice mix and sauté in the butter in the same skillet.
  • Serve with lots of garlic bread and ice-cold beer or chilled white wine.
