Tequila Shrimp With Garlic And Guajillo Chile Recipes

TEQUILA SHRIMP

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute garlic until light brown. Place shrimp in the pan, and cook for 3 minutes.
• Pour in tequila, and season with cilantro, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 more minutes.

TEQUILA SHRIMP BANGER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise, chili sauce, tequila, Sriracha, oil, adobo, granulated garlic, cayenne and 2 cups water. Mix to combine.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH CHILE AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for high heat. (If you don't have a grill, you can cook the shrimp in a cast-iron skillet over high heat, with the vent on, following the same timing.) Using a Microplane or the small holes of a box grater, grate the garlic and chile into a medium bowl. Stir in the mayonnaise, salt and baking soda. Add the shrimp and stir to combine. Refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Clean the grates with a grill brush (no need to grease the grates), then grill the shrimp until well browned, 2 to 4 minutes. (If using a gas grill, close the lid to maintain temperature.) Flip and cook until opaque throughout, 1 to 2 minutes. Eat right away.

GUAJILLO SHRIMP

Steps:

• Defrost (if needed), peel and devein shrimp, set aside on paper towels.
• Pour olive oil in a large preheated non-stick skillet on medium-high heat.
• Add garlic, shallot, onion, bell pepper, bay leaf, peas, Guajillo chili, allspice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
• Cook until onions and bell pepper just begin to brown.
• Add shrimp.
• Stir and cook only until they are pinkish and opaque.
• Remove from heat and stir in saffron and cayenne pepper to taste.
• Note: Guajillo are medium-hot chilies; the cayenne pepper adds heat so add as much or a little as you like.
• Taste and add more salt if needed.
• Garnish with cilantro and green onions.
• Serve over steamed long grain or jasmine rice.
