Cajun BBQ Shrimp

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/3 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup water or broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined
  • salt to taste
  1. In a small bowl, stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, basil, thyme, rosemary, cayenne pepper and paprika. Set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the shrimp and spices and cook for a couple of minutes. Pour in the broth and Worcestershire sauce; simmer until shrimp is cooked through, about 1 more minute. Taste and season with salt before serving.  I like to serve with rice or pasta and a little bread to sop up all the tasty goodness.
