- 2 TBS Salted Perfection Fort Worth Select Blend
- 2 lbs Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup Lager or Pilsner beer
- 2 tbsp Fresh ginger, minced
- 1 tbsp Sweetener (honey or brown sugar)
- 1 bunch Green onions, chopped (whites and greens separated)
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
Allergen check: Crustacean shellfish recognized in these ingredients. Check package labels and substitutions.
Step by step
- Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. You want a sear, not a steam bath. Toss them in a bowl with the Salted Perfection Fort Worth Select Blend until they are evenly coated.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Throw in the minced ginger and the white parts of the green onions. Sauté for about one minute until they are fragrant.
- Pour in the beer and stir in your sweetener. Let the liquid bubble vigorously and reduce by about half. We are concentrating those flavors before the shrimp go in.
- Drop the shrimp into the skillet. Spread them out. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side just until they turn pink and opaque.
- Remove the pan from the heat immediately so the shrimp stay tender. Garnish with the green onion tops and serve it up.

From Tony’s kitchen
You wanted drunken shrimp, so we are getting them tipsy on a good lager and hitting them with some serious spice. The Fort Worth blend brings ginger, chili, and a hint of orange that cuts right through the richness of the beer. It is fast, it is messy, and it is exactly what you need for a main course.
