Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine all the seasonings.
  2. Place the thawed shrimp in a bowl and pat dry with paper towels to eliminate the remaining water.
  3. Sprinkle with the seasoning mix and stir well to coat each shrimp.
  4. Preheat a large heavy-bottom skillet over medium heat and drizzle with the oil.
  5. Working in 2 batches, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until charred and curled, about 2 minutes per each side.

Notes

  • Storing leftovers: Place leftover blackened shrimp in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep for about two days. 
  • To reheat: You can cook shrimp on the stove with about a teaspoon of olive oil on medium heat for about 1-2 minutes until they are heated through.
