How to Make Bahama Breeze Fire Roasted Jerk Shrimp

  1. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
  2. In a 1-quart baking dish, combine 1/2 cup beer, 1 teaspoon allspice, 1-2 teaspoons minced scotch bonnet pepper (adjust to your spice preference!), 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, and 2 tablespoons sliced green onions.
  3. Add 1 pound of shrimp to the baking dish, gently folding to coat them evenly in the mixture.
  4. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of melted butter over the shrimp.
  5. Slice a Cuban loaf into 1-inch thick slices and arrange them evenly over the shrimp in the baking dish.
  6. Place the baking dish on the middle rack of the preheated oven.
  7. Bake for 4-5 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the shrimp are bubbling hot and pink throughout.
  8. If using a small oven, consider baking the bread and shrimp separately to ensure even cooking. Bake the bread slightly ahead of time.
  9. Remove from oven, let rest for a minute and serve immediately with extra butter, if desired. Enjoy!
  10. Important: Always use caution when handling scotch bonnet peppers. Wear gloves during preparation and wash your hands thoroughly afterwards.
