BBQ Shrimp - Nick's Style

Ingredients:

1 lb. large shrimp, shelled and deveined
2 tsp. Old Bay seasoning
1/4 tsp. fresh ground pepper
flour, for dredging
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbls. canola oil
1 Tbls. butter
1/8 c. your favorite BBQ sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray's)

Directions:
Place cleaned shrimp in a 2 qt. dish. Sprinkle with Old Bay and pepper, toss to combine. Sprinkle with flour, tossing and adding more flour as necessary, until shrimp is well covered.

Heat canola oil and butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat until butter melts and is bubbly. Add garlic and saute until garlic is fragrant.

Add shrimp and saute on all sides, about 5 minutes, until they are pink and tails curl in slightly.

Reduce heat, add BBQ sauce, and stir to combine. Serve immediately with garlic bread and grits - of course!!

Servings: 3-4
Time to Prepare: 15 min prep (incl. shells), 8 min cook time

Comments:
This is a fast take on traditional BBQ shrimp but much lighter. The original is baked, with a full cup of butter, and the shells are left intact. I am a huge fan of BBQ shrimp and I think this is delish!
