Just found this recipe and cannot wait to try it. The difference is the addition of Montreal seasoning paired with the usual garlic and lemon. I just love the extra shot of flavor this seasoning gives to dishes and I use it real often. Original recipe courtesy of Rachael Ray.

SPICY GARLIC SHRIMP

Spicy Garlic Shrimp image

This is my favorite shrimp recipe that my family makes, and I think it may have originally been from Rachael Ray. You can have it over noodles, over rice or as a side dish to a steak. I usually cook it in a pan, but you can also put it on skewers and grill it. It's just a really good way to have shrimp!

lemon wedge, for garnish

Tips:

For a deeper flavor, use unsalted butter instead of oil.
If you don't have Montreal steak seasoning, you can substitute a mixture of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Adjust the proportions to taste.
If you like your shrimp extra spicy, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mixture.
For a more garlicky flavor, use 4-6 cloves of garlic instead of 2.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the shrimp. Cook them in batches if necessary to prevent them from steaming and becoming tough.
Serve the shrimp immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, pasta, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This Montreal spicy garlic shrimp recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy shrimp. The Montreal steak seasoning and garlic give the shrimp a flavorful and aromatic crust, while the butter and olive oil add richness and moisture. Serve this dish as an appetizer or main course with your favorite sides.
