Authentic New Orleans Bbq Shrimp Recipes

NEW ORLEANS-STYLE BARBECUED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until the shallots are soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the lemon slices and cook until they begin to brown, about 1 minute longer, then stir in the shrimp, paprika, thyme, black pepper and salt. Add the Worcestershire sauce and 3 tablespoons water and bring the liquid to a simmer.
• Cook, stirring often, until the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the butter cubes and swirl the pan to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer until the shrimp are pink and just opaque all the way through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with lots of napkins and some crusty bread for sopping up the sauce.

Steps:

• 1. In a large heavy skillet, preferably cast iron, combine shrimp, lemon juice, garlic, lemon juice, black peppers, Creole seasoning, worcestershire sauce, and bay leaves; cook over medium high heat until shrimp turn pink, about 1-2 minutes on each side.
• 2. Reduce heat to medium and start adding butter, a few cubes at a time, stirring or shaking pan vigorously constantly.
• 3. When butter melts then add a few more cubes - continue until all butter is incorporated. Don't add the butter all at once, it won't emulsify into the sauce.
• 4. Remove skillet from heat. Place 4-5 shrimp into a bowl (for appetizer), 8-10 (for entree), and pour sauce over the shrimp. Serve with lots of French Bread and a wet hand towel.

REAL NEW ORLEANS STYLE BBQ SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange the shrimp in a single layer in as many baking dishes as you need. Set aside.
• Melt 1/2 cup of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, celery, parsley, Creole seasoning and rosemary. Cook and stir for a few minutes, until onion is tender. Add the rest of the butter and cook until melted over low heat. Stir in the pepper, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice. Pour this mixture over the shrimp so that the shrimp are completely submerged.
• Bake in the preheated oven until shrimp are pink, 15 to 20 minutes.
