Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1½ pounds extra-large shrimp (peeled, deveined, tail-off), thawed and patted dry 680g
- Juice of 1 large lime
- 2 sprigs of fresh oregano
- 1 small white or yellow onion small diced
- 2 garlic cloves minced (optional)
- ½ tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¾ cup Cacique Crema Mexicana Grade A Table Cream (or sour cream)
- 2 10-ounce Cacique Manchego Cheese, shredded or any other melting cheese
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
Instructions
- Preheat the conventional broiler. Make sure to position the broiler rack approximately 8 inches from the source of heat. Grease a medium baking dish with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and set aside.
- Toss the shrimp, lime juice, and leaves of 1 sprig of fresh oregano in a large bowl. Let stand for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 4 minutes or until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Do not let brown!
- Spread cooked onion and garlic in a medium baking dish. Drain the shrimp and arrange on top of the cooked onion/garlic mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Mix cream and half of the shredded cheese in a bowl.
- Pour cream/cheese mixture over the shrimp. Then, distribute the other half of the cheese on top. Broil for about 5 minutes, or until cheese is golden brown. Sprinkle leaves of the remaining sprig of oregano on top, and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Do not freeze!
