I loved this dish, ate it in New Orleans and I made sure I tried it out at home. Of course it is not the exact version - I cooked with all the ingredients I had at home and it tasted equally good!
Ingredients: Cooking time about 20 mins under broiler or grill in the oven.
- 1 lb fresh water shrimps with heads attached.
- 4 tbs Worchestershire sauce.
- 2 tbs Soya sauce.
- 2 tbs vinegar.
- Cracked black pepper.
- 1 tsp minced ginger.
- 2 tbs minced white onion.
- 1 tsp allspice powder.
- 1 tbs hot sauce.
- 1 tsp cayenne powder.
- 1/4 cup veg.oil.
To prepare:
- Mix all the ingredients listed above and marinate the shrimps in a bowl, cover it, refrigerate for an hour and then cook.
How to cook:
- You need 6 cloves of garlic, sliced.
- Also 4 tbs unsalted room temp.butter.
- In an oven proof skillet, melt the butter over low heat .
- Put the sliced garlic in the butter, making sure either of the ingredients does not get brown.
- Take the skillet off the heat and pour the marinated shrimp and the marinade over the heated butter.
- Then put the skillet below a broiler or a grill on high until the shrimps tend to turn lightly brown and the marinade begins to sizzle.
- Take it out from the oven and pour it in a serving dish. Sprinkle some dried thyme or rosemary.
- Serve it with warm garlic bread.
