Instructions
- Heat skillet over MED HIGH heat. Add oil and butter. Season shrimp with salt, pepper, chili powder and cayenne.
- Add shrimp to the skillet in a single layer (you may need to cook the shrimp in batches, depending on the size of your skillet). Cook, 2 minutes per side, until pink and golden brown. Transfer cooked shrimp to a plate.
- Reduce heat to MED. Whisk together sauce ingredients in a small bowl, then add to the hot skillet.
- Stir and let cook a minute or so, until bubbling. Add shrimp back to pan and stir to coat.
- Serve with lime wedges and minced cilantro if desired.
Notes
- If sauce isn't thickening to your liking, mix together 1 Tbsp of water and 2 tsp of cornstarch in a small bowl. Stir into sauce and whisk as it cooks. This will gently thicken the sauce.
