Ingredients:
1 pound side-stripe shrimp
¼ cup butter
2 large garlic cloves (minced)
2 green onions (finely chopped)
2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1 fresh small red chili pepper (optional)
Hys seasoning salt to taste
¼ cup tequila
½ of a fresh lime
Method: cut shrimp down the back with small scissors ( to allow for an easy peel and eat)
To prepare shrimp; defrost, rinse and drain well on paper towel. In a large frying pan, sauté garlic, chili pepper, and green onions in the butter for one minute. Add shrimp (shell on), Hys (to taste), and fresh parsley. Sauté for one minute more. Add tequila to the pan and carefully ignite with a match or barbeque lighter.
