Spicy Shrimp
Peach Salad
Steps
1
Toss everything together for the peach salad. Prep anything else you might serve this with (I like rice).
2
Toss the shrimp with the spices.
3
Heat a drizzle of avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until no longer translucent, about 2 minutes per side.
4
Add a knob of butter and a drizzle of honey at the end of cooking to toss with the shrimp and pull up some of the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. This will also make the shrimp saucy, glazey, and delicious.
5
Plate the shrimp over rice with a big scoop of that peach salad! So yum.
Notes
When I make this for my family, I wait to add the cayenne until after I pull a few shrimp out of the pan for my daughters! Then once they have a few non-spicy ones, I’ll add the cayenne for my husband and myself. 🙂 The spicy with the sweet is so yummy!
This serves me, my husband, and our two young kids who each only eat a few pieces of shrimp. If you’re serving 4 adults, I would double the shrimp amounts (increase to 2lbs of shrimp and scale spices up).
I personally like to remove the tails before cooking just so that when I’m eating I don’t have to mess with the tails. I thaw the frozen shrimp and then remove the tails before tossing with the spices. But you can do it either way!
