How to Cook Buttered Shrimp
posted by: Feby
How do you like to cook your seafood? Is it baked, grilled or buttered? As for me, I really don’t care how it is being prepared and cooked because I simply love to eat seafood so much. I’m really adventurous when it comes to food, so anything edible, I eat it. I’m always willing to give it a try to taste any food that is new to me especially if it is seafood.
Anyway, in this article I will share one of my favorite recipes of seafood. You heard this recipe a million time and maybe tasted in different restaurants and in different versions, but I wanted to share my own version of this food. What I am talking about is buttered shrimp. Let me share how to cook buttered shrimp in a stress free manner and in a pretty quick way.
Buttered Shrimp Ingredients:
- 1 kilo of medium sized shrimps
- ¼ cup of ginger, sliced into strips
- 5 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 large onion, minced
- 8 oz of soda ( sprite or 7-up)
- 75-100 grams of soft butter
- 1 teaspoon of cornstarch ( dissolve with 1 teaspoon of water)
- ¼ cup of water
- Salt
- Pepper
Cooking Procedure:
- Heat a non stick pan, put half of the butter into it and melt. Sauté garlic, onion and ginger until slightly brown.
- Then add the rest of the butter into it, put the shrimp. Season it with salt and pepper. Stir until the shrimp changed its color into orange.
- Next, pour water and soda. Boil for few minutes until the shrimp is almost cooked. Add cornstarch mixture and continue to cook and simmer until the sauce becomes thick.
- Finally, turn off the heat. Transfer the buttered shrimp into a clean serving plate. Serve with steamed rice.
It will not take you sometime to prepare and cook this recipe. Since this is a seafood recipe, make sure the shrimp is really fresh to achieve the desired taste.
