Simple Sauteed Shrimp


(Serves 3-5)

We all love a home cooked meal. We all love it even more when that home cooked meal is easy-to-make.  This shrimp recipe is not only quick and simple, but sure to delight you and your family. So roll up those sleeves and let's get cookin' good lookin. 

Ingredients:
1/2 onion
1 lb of deveined shrimp
1 - 2 garlic cloves
Fresh thyme
Fresh lemon
Other herbs of your choosing
Your favorite seafood seasonings
Olive Oil

Directions:
1.Slice and dice that onion and garlic
(Chop onion and mince garlic)
2.Grab the lubricant and heat it up
(Warm the skillet on low heat, add olive oil)
3.Caramelize the prep, and toss in the green
(Brown the onions, toss in the thyme as well)
4.Add the garli to the party
(Once onions are soft, add garlic)
*Time out 4 a Tasty Tip*:  I love to add fresh herbs to the cooking oil, to infuse it with flavor before adding the main ingredients. 
Ok, so back to business
5. Massage in a secret spice blend 
(Create a dry-rub using your own blend of your favorite seafood seasonings.)
6. Everybody in the pool
(Add season shrimps to pan with onion, garlic and herbs.)
7. Let them get  nice tan
(Cook well until they turn a redish/orangish hue)
8. Shower your super simple shrimp
(Squeeze in fresh lemon juice)
Add lemons directly to the pan to allow shrimp a chance to absorb all the flavor
Serve with corn and green beans











Garlic, #IASOTea sachet, onions

Add fresh herbs to olive oil to infuse flavor

Be careful when using seasonings like #OldBay, they tend to hide a lot of salt
I encourage you to create your own blend


 Enjoy, you did dat!
