How to Make Spitfire Shrimp
- Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 teaspoon lime zest, 1 tablespoon hot sauce (adjust to your spice preference), 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon olive oil in the preheated skillet. Sauté 2 minced cloves garlic and 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Add 1 pound of shrimp to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until pink and firm. Remove shrimp from skillet and set aside.
- Pour the lime juice mixture into the skillet and bring to a simmer for 1 minute, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Add the cooked shrimp back to the skillet and toss gently to coat in the sauce.
- Serve immediately over rice pilaf and with your favorite green vegetable or salad. Enjoy hot or cold!
