How to Make 10 Minute Buffalo Shrimp With Blue Cheese Dip

  1. **Make the Blue Cheese Dip:** In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons sour cream, 1 tablespoon milk, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  2. **Prepare the Shrimp:** In a shallow dish, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
  3. **Coat the Shrimp:** Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp to the flour mixture, tossing gently to coat evenly.
  4. **Cook the Shrimp:** Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of your favorite hot sauce to the skillet.
  5. **Sear the Shrimp:** Add the coated shrimp to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until pink and lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
  6. **Garnish and Serve:** Sprinkle the blue cheese dip with 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley. Serve the shrimp immediately with the blue cheese dip. Garnish with extra parsley and serve with carrot and celery sticks, if desired.
