Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, smashed and minced
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, divided
2 bay leaves
2 lemons, cut in half
1 cup dark beer
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
2 lbs large shrimp, peeled and tails left on
salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the butter in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat until sizzling hot. Add the onion, garlic, 1 tablespoon parsley, and bay leaves and cook and stir until the garlic is aromatic, about 1 minute. Squeeze the juice from the lemons into the skillet, reserving 2 of the squeezed halves. Add the beer, worcestershire, hot sauce, and red pepper flakes and stir to mix. Thinly slice the reserved lemon halves and add to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a low boil and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Season the shrimp all over with salt and pepper and add to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 4 or 5 minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper if needed and sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons parsley.

This recipe reminds me of the shrimp boils we used to have at family reunions.

I'm not sure about this recipe. It seems like it would be too spicy for me.

I'm allergic to shrimp, but this recipe looks so good that I might have to try it with chicken or tofu.

This recipe was a disaster! The shrimp were tough and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend it.

The shrimp were a little overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try it again with less cooking time.
