Large Gulf shrimp boiled in your favorite beer. I like to use a light ale (not too hoppy) rather than dark beer or pilsner. There’s a little butter for a touch of flavor. This is a great way to get messy as you eat–finger food at its best!
Ready in: 30 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 3 cans your favorite beer
• 1 onion, cut in large pieces
• 1 head garlic, cloves cut in half
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons Cajun seasoning, or to taste
• 3 pounds large Gulf shrimp
• 1 lemon
• 1/4 cup chopped parsley

Preparation method

Prep: 15 mins | Cook: 15 mins

1. Pour the beer into a large pot with a lid. Add the onion, garlic, butter and Cajun seasoning. Bring to a hard boil on high heat and cook for 5 minutes.
2. Stir in the shrimp. Cover with a lid, and boil until the shrimp have all turned pink and are cooked. Stir the shrimp with a spoon frequently to ensure even cooking.
3. Dump the shrimp into a colander to drain, and pick out the onion pieces. Return to the pot and squeeze in the lemon and add the parsley. Stir and serve.
