Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon sweet smoked paprika
  • 1 ½ teaspoons granulated garlic
  • 1 ½ teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 pound jumbo shrimp
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • For blackening rub, combine first seven ingredients and stir to thoroughly mix.
  • Coat shrimp with spice/herb blackening rub. You'll have more rub than you need for this recipe. Save the extra for grilled chicken, pork or seafood.
  • Combine butter and olive oil in a sauté pan. Heat over medium-high heat until hot and bubbly but not brown. Add shrimp and cook quickly, about 1-1 ½ minutes per side, until blackened in patches. Remove from pan and serve warm over Lemon Risotto.
