Cookbook:Beer Marinated Shrimp

Cookbook | Recipes | Ingredients | Equipment | Techniques | Cookbook Disambiguation Pages | Recipes

This is an excellent shrimp dish that must be marinated overnight, so if you need dinner half an hour from now this isn't for you.

• 2 pounds (900 g) peeled raw shrimp
• 1 onion, sliced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 12 ounces (340 ml) of beer
• Tabasco sauce
• Salt
• Pepper
• Butter

1. Combine onion, garlic, shrimp, and beer in a plastic or glass bowl.
2. Add as much Tabasco as you'd like (start with 1 tbsp) and some salt and pepper to taste.
3. Cover and marinate overnight.
4. Remove shrimp from marinade, and discard marinade.
5. Melt some butter in a pan and sauté shrimp until pink and done. Don't overcook the shrimp or they'll be rubbery. You can also grill the shrimp.
