Spicy Cajun Shrimp Dirty Rice

3/25/2009
I just love spicy food! If your looking for something quick, simple and delish, this is it folks!

Ingredients:

2 dozen large shrimp
1 tsp. ground cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp ground pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp crushed basil leaves
1/2 tsp oregano
1/3 cup butter
1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp Worcestershire
1 large tomato, diced
1/4 cup beer, room temp.
1 cup green onion, chopped (You can use less if you want...I just love onions!)
3 cups of cooked dirty rice

After you have removed the shells and cleaned the shrimp, set aside. In a small bowl combine the seasonings. Combine butter, garlic, Worcestershire, and seasonings in a large skillet. When butter melts add the tomato and the shrimps. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Add beer and cover; cook 1 minute longer. Add green onions and remove from heat.

*I used Zatarain's Dirty Rice and followed directions on the box except for adding the ground beef. Take the cooked rice and mix with the shrimp in the same skilled until well blended. I served this will salad.



Enjoy!
