Description

Plump shrimp grilled to perfection and tossed in a sizzling skillet of garlic, butter, and smoked paprika. Serve with crusty bread to soak up every last drop.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb (454g) large raw shrimp in shells
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) complete seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) butter
  • 10 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1.2ml) salt
  • 2 pinches cayenne pepper
  • Crusty bread (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Heat grill on medium-high heat. Skewer shrimp on metal or wooden skewers. Pat dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle with seasoning.
  2. When grill is hot, place shrimp skewers on grill and cook 2 minutes per side until pink. Remove to a clean plate. When cool enough to handle, remove shrimp from skewers.
  3. Place olive oil and butter in a sided cast iron skillet placed on the grill. Heat until butter is melted and foams. Add garlic, smoked paprika, salt and cayenne. Cook 30-60 seconds until fragrant. Add shrimp and toss to coat, cooking just a minute or two to heat the shrimp back up. Serve with crusty bread.

Notes

For a perfect pairing, serve with a crisp Santa Rita 120 sauvignon blanc. If you don’t have Badia complete seasoning, you can substitute with a mix of garlic powder, onion powder, and dried herbs. Store any leftover shrimp in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently to avoid overcooking.
