Margarita Shrimp
From thegoldminer 17 years agoIngredients
- 5 tbsp oil shopping list
- 1 1/2 lbs uncooked medium shrimp, peeled, devein shopping list
- 1/2 cup minced green onion (2 bunches, about 12-14 onions shopping list
- 2 large garlic cloves minced shopping list
- 1/4 cup tequila for cooking shopping list
- 1/8 cup to pour over cooked shrimp shopping list
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice (1 large lime, thoroughly squeezed) shopping list
- 1/2 tsp Margarita or coarse salt shopping list
- lime wedges (1 lime) shopping list
How to make it
- Heat oil in a heavy large skillet over medium high heat
- Add garlic, get some brown pieces going, then add green onion, stir well.
- Add shrimp, cook stirring until pink, remove and pour shrimp and liquid into a bowl.
- Add tequila, return to heat, bring to boil and scrap all the left over bits together.
- Cook about a minute, no more. Pour over shrimp and stir well.
- Pour remaining tequila over shrimp in the bowl and mix well.
- In you just going to eat it for your self, sprinkle part of the salt over shrimp, stir well, add remaining salt.
- I just dished up a bowl full, squeezed about 4 lime wedges, spooned on a couple of tablespoons of the white creamy liquid, stirred and ate it.
- For presentation, using slotted spoon, remove shrimp from bowl, place on platter, sprinkle parsley flakes for color.
- Pour remaining juice in serving bowl so each person can spoon liquid over the shrimp.
- Some may want cooked noodles or rice to put shrimp on, then juice.
- To me it was just plain good in the bowl with all that wonderful juice.
- Sauted mushrooms would probably go well with the shrimp.
- Thanks to dancegypsy67 for this basic recipe. Good post 67, thanks JJ.
- The pics were fun to take, especially the platter pic.
