Ingredients

• 8 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails on
• 1 tablespoon Cajon Creole seasoning
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• ¾ cup beer
• 3 tablespoons hot sauce
• 3 tablespoons Worcestershire
• 2 and ½ tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
• Crusty French bread, for serving

Preparation

Marinate Shrimp:

1. Place the shrimp in a bowl, add Cajun Creole seasoning, toss to coat, and set aside.

Sear Shrimp:

1. Heat a medium-sized non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add oil and garlic to the skillet; cook until golden (about 1 minute).
2. Add oregano and cook for a few seconds.
3. Immediately add the shrimp, cook for 30 seconds, flip, and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove the shrimp and transfer them to a plate.

Make Sauce:

1. In the same skillet, add beer, hot sauce, Worcestershire, and lemon juice, and stir well.
2. Cook, stirring until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
3. Remove the skillet from the heat and whisk in cold butter, a few pieces at a time. The sauce will thicken further.

Finish Cooking Shrimp and Serve:

1. Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat. Return the skillet to medium heat and cook until the shrimp are cooked through (about 2 minutes), flipping once halfway through.
2. Split the shrimp onto two plates and pour the sauce over both.
3. Serve with crusty French bread to soak up the delicious, tangy sauce.
