Instructions
- Defrost the shrimp and rinse thoroughly with cold water. Drain, pat dry with paper towels, and set aside.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter melts, add the shrimp and toss to coat. Sprinkle in the Old Bay seasoning and stir to combine well with the shrimp.
- Add the beer and cover the skillet with its lid. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the shrimp is cooked through. Stir in the parsley leaves, then dish out and serve immediately.
Notes
- You can find these frozen, split and deveined shrimp at supermarket so you don't have to devein the shrimp yourself.
- For the best result, choose a lighter tasting beer which is less bitter.
- Don't discard and waste the beer broth. Sop it up with bread.
