How to Make Easy Curried Shrimp
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1-2 tablespoons curry powder (adjust to taste), 1/2 cup chopped onion, and 1 tablespoon grated ginger. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion softens, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup chicken broth, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon sugar, and the juice of 1/2 lemon. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
- Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer. Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Do not overcook!
- Serve the curried shrimp immediately over cooked rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley, if desired.
