Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 (1.6 oz) package buffalo wing seasoning mix (such as McCormick® Original Buffalo Wings Seasoning Mix)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
¼ cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons lime juice
4 lime wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Rinse the shrimp with cold water and pat dry with paper towls. Add the shrimp and seasoning mix to a plastic bag and shake to coat.
  • Heat the butter, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter has melted. Raise the heat to medium-high; when the butter begins to pop and sizzle add the shrimp to the pan. Cook and stir the shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 4 to 5 minutes. Do not overcook.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Garnish with lime wedges and serve hot.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I also like to add some chopped vegetables to the sauce, such as bell peppers or onions.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili pepper flakes.

The shrimp were a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the shrimp for a shorter amount of time.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The shrimp are always cooked perfectly and the sauce is delicious. I like to add a little bit of extra garlic and red pepper flakes for a little extra kick.
