~ SWEET & SASSY SHRIMP ~ CASSIES
My family requested sweet & spicy shrimp for dinner, so I threw this concoction together and boy did they ever love it. Not a shrimp left. You can cut down on the heat if you prefer. My family likes it hot and my measurements of the spices were perfect for them. Enjoy!

Steps:
- 1. In a small dish, mix the sugar, garlic powder, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, cayenne, red pepper flakes.
- 2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter with the oil. Add the spice mixture and stir making sure all is wet and mixed well with the oil and butter. Should be bubbling.
- 3. Add the shrimp, spreading out so to cook evenly, stirring occasionally ( about 2 minutes after adding ) make sure other side is cooked as well, only until opaque.
- 4. Stir in the remaining butter and sherry if using. Spoon hot shrimp and sauce over rice or pasta, with a squeeze of lemon if desired. My version is pretty spicy, you can cut down on the cayenne & pepper flakes to half if desired. My family likes hot.
- 5. Enjoy! They're delicious!
