Lemon Buttery Shrimp [4.28.12]

My family and I are true New Orleanians, so we LOVE shrimp

in any form.  I first cooked Shrimp Etouffee and the family devoured it.

We still had a great deal of shrimp to cook, so the idea came to me to

cook them in a butter sauce with a bit of lemon pepper.  So, here I am

sharing what I did with you!

 

Ingredients:

 

Shrimp

Rice

Butter

Lemon Pepper Seasoning

Oregano

Italian Seasoning

1 1/2 TBSP Garlic

Garlic Powder or Granulated

 

*Note*

I cook with 5 minute rice.  It's quick and there's NO WAY I can mess it up. lol

We are not big fans of regular butter.  We use Olivio's spray butter.

 

Directions for rice:

 

1. Prepare rice as directed

2. After rice is done add oregano, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to rice

Directions for Shrimp and Sauce:

1. In a skillet melt 1 stick butter

2. Add in shrimp

3. As shrimp turn pink add garlic, parsley, salt and pepper

4. Add 1 TBSP flour (to thicken sauce)
