Ingredients

How to make it

  • Heat oil in a heavy large skillet over medium high heat
  • Add garlic, get some brown pieces going, then add green onion, stir well.
  • Add shrimp, cook stirring until pink, remove and pour shrimp and liquid into a bowl.
  • Add tequila, return to heat, bring to boil and scrap all the left over bits together.
  • Cook about a minute, no more. Pour over shrimp and stir well.
  • Pour remaining tequila over shrimp in the bowl and mix well.
  • In you just going to eat it for your self, sprinkle part of the salt over shrimp, stir well, add remaining salt.
  • I just dished up a bowl full, squeezed about 4 lime wedges, spooned on a couple of tablespoons of the white creamy liquid, stirred and ate it.
  • For presentation, using slotted spoon, remove shrimp from bowl, place on platter, sprinkle parsley flakes for color.
  • Pour remaining juice in serving bowl so each person can spoon liquid over the shrimp.
  • Some may want cooked noodles or rice to put shrimp on, then juice.
  • To me it was just plain good in the bowl with all that wonderful juice.
  • Sauted mushrooms would probably go well with the shrimp.
  • Thanks to dancegypsy67 for this basic recipe. Good post 67, thanks JJ.
  • The pics were fun to take, especially the platter pic.

    The picture titled 'shrimp close up' is fabulous. It's breakfast time here but is there a law that I can't wish for margarita shrimp for breakfast?! :)
