    Spicy, Fascinating Shrimp Creole with rice and/or grits!


Lets face it I adore my shrimp and when it comes to shrimp I am always up to trying interesting new recipes, I also like flavor savory dishes which is what make this creole shrimp leap off the pages to me & I just had to share it here with my followers.

3 Tbsp. butter, divides 

6 Tbsp. green onions (approx. 3) thinkly slided, divided.

3 tsp. minced garlic, divided

1 (12 ounce) bottle  Hefeweizen ( wheat beer optional)

3/4 cup Worcestershire sauce

1/2 tsp. ground cumin

1/2 tsp. herbes de Provence

1/2 tsp. Kosher salt

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

1/8 tsp. paprika

1/8 tsp. ground black pepper

2 Tbs. vegetable oil

1/4 cup red bell pepper, corned and diced


1/4 cup heavy cream

1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled & deveined

1/4 cup heavy cream

5 ounces baby spinach

2 tsp. lemon juice

Wild Rice (or your choice) or
Cheddar grits for serving 



Melt 1 Tbsp butter in a small saucepan. Add 2 Tbsp. green onion & 1 tsp. garlic & cook over low heat until softed (approx. 3minutes).

Add beer & Worcestershire suce & increase heat to medium-high. Boil to reduce sauce to 1 cup, 15 to 20 minutes. Then remove from heat. 

In small bowl, combine cumink, herbes de Provence, salt, cayenne pepper, paprika & ground black pepper. Set aside.

In a large saute pan, heat oil until shimmering. Add remaining 4 Tbsp. green onion, remaining 2 tsp. garlic, and green and red bell pepper. Sprinkle with spice mixture & saute` until vegetables have softened, about five minutes.

Add shrimp & sear on one side, about 1 minute then flip shrimp & add reserved sauce, remaining 2 Tbsp. butter, and cream and bring to simmer. When shrimp are pink on both sides (about 2 minutes) add spinach a handful at a time, stirring to coat with sauce. When spinach has wilted, remove pan from heat, stir in lemon juice and serve immediately over Cheddar grits or your favorite rice.
