Zubereitung von Acadian Peppered Shrimp
- Ensure you are using shrimp sized 30-35 per pound. Peel and devein shrimp, leaving tails intact if desired.
- Melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of unsalted butter in a large, deep-sided frying pan or cast iron skillet over medium-low heat.
- Once melted, increase the heat to medium-high. Add 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softened and the mixture is a rich mahogany brown, about 8-10 minutes.
- Add 1 pound of shrimp to the pan. Gently stir to coat the shrimp evenly with the seasoned butter.
- Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp turn a vibrant pink and are cooked through. Do not overcook.
- Serve the shrimp immediately, either in their shells for an authentic presentation or peeled. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional).
