Spicy New Orleans Inspired Shrimp😻

Go heat up your largest skillet and serve up a big batch of these DELICIOUS fiery shrimp tonight!

Slightly to moderately spicy depending on the hot sauce you choose. Feel free to add more or less hot sauce according to YOUR personal spiciness desires.

Serve your spicy shrimp with a side of brown rice or quinoa, and collard greens or broccoli to round out your meal.

These shrimp are awesome for food prep too! Cooked shrimp stay good in the fridge for 2-3 days.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs raw tiger shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 Tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions:

Thoroughly rinse your shrimp with cold water and pat the excess moisture with a paper towel.

Place shrimp in a large bowl, then sprinkle shrimp with all dry seasonings and stir well to coat. Allow shimp to marinate, refrigerated for at least 15 minutes, up to an hour.

In a heavy skillet, heat ghee and oil together over medium-high heat.

Once hot, add in minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute.

Reduce the heat to low and immediately add in the hot sauce, coconut aminos, and lemon juice. Simmer for few just a few seconds whisking constantly.

Stir in your marinated shrimp and cook over medium heat, until your shrimp is opaque, and evenly covered with the spicy sauce, about 2 minutes per side.

Once your shrimp are cooked through, remove from the heat.

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve!
