How to Make Dirty Shrimp In Butter Beer Sauce
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced cloves of garlic and 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, thyme, and chives). Sauté for 2-3 minutes, until garlic is fragrant and lightly golden.
- Add 1 pound of shrimp to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, stirring frequently, until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
- Pour in 1/2 cup of beer (any light beer works well). Add a pinch of red pepper flakes (or more, to taste). Simmer for 1 minute, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken.
- Serve immediately over cooked rice, or with crusty bread for dipping. Garnish with extra fresh herbs, if desired.
