Blackened Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Mix spice ingredients thoroughly in a small bowl (make a double or triple batch and store the remainder for later use!) Dredge shrimp through the mixture.
• Place a large skillet over a very high heat, and melt the butter.
• Place the shrimp in the skillet and turn heat down to medium.
• Cook on both sides for approximately 7 minutes (maybe less) each- pay attention to the shrimp as they cook quickly; when the shrimp curl, they are done.
• Optional – sprinkle the vegetables with the spice mix and sauté in the butter in the same skillet.
• Serve with lots of garlic bread and ice-cold beer or chilled white wine.

Steps:

• Place shrimp in a bowl. Season with blackened seasoning.
• Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp until opaque, about 1 minute per side.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the mayonnaise, minced pickles, shallot and hot sauce in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Toss the shrimp with the Cajun seasoning and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, arrange the rolls on a baking sheet and toast in the oven, about 5 minutes. Spread the mayonnaise mixture on the cut sides of each roll. Fill with the shrimp, lettuce and tomatoes. Serve with pickles.

Steps:

• In a pot, bring the chicken base, butter and 2 quarts water to a boil. Whisk in the the grits, then turn the heat to low, cover the pot and cook for 8 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, whisk in the cheese and let sit on the stove for another 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the Blackened Butter in a large saucepan on medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the pan and saute until it's no longer pink. Add the bacon, give it a final toss and distribute the shrimp and bacon on top of the plated grits. Finish the dish by pouring the remaining butter left in the pan over the plated shrimp and grits.
• Blend the melted butter with the blackening spice and garlic. Mix this with the softened butter and whisk thoroughly until smooth. Spread into a 13-by-9-inch pan and freeze for 2 hours. Cut into 8-by-12-inch cubes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• Place shrimp in black iron skillet in attractive pattern.
• Squeeze lemon juice over shrimp.
• Sprinkle generously with garlic powder, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and peppers.
• Pat on butter/margarine in small pieces around skillet.
• Place in hot oven for 7 minutes.
• Remove from oven.
• Serve from skillet with hot French bread.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a frying pan over high heat. Add shrimp, honey, balsamic vinegar, mustard, dill, basil, and cayenne. Stir and season with salt and pepper. Cook until honey and balsamic vinegar start to bubble, about 5 minutes. Cover with a lid; cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is completely reduced and shrimp are blackened in spots, about 10 minutes.
