How to Make Spicy Three Pepper Shrimp
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste), 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped yellow bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat), and 1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined).
- Gently stir the shrimp mixture to coat evenly. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours if refrigerated).
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the red, yellow, and jalapeño peppers to the skillet and sauté for about 2 minutes, until slightly softened.
- Add the marinated shrimp mixture to the skillet. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook.
- Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro just before serving.
- Serve the Spicy Three Pepper Shrimp over a bed of saffron rice (recipe instructions not included here, but easily found online).
