Smoked Paprika Shrimp

Ingredients

  • 1 T. smoked paprika
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ t. salt
  • ½ t. black pepper
  • Zest and juice of 1 lime
  • 1 T. honey
  • 3 T. olive oil
  • A dash or two of hot sauce, optional
  • 1 lb. large shrimp, peeled, tails on

Instructions

  • In a resealable zipper bag, mix all ingredients except the shrimp. Add the shrimp and gently rub the marinade all around so it coats the shrimp. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, up to one hour.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook, turning once, for about 8 minutes. You may need to cook the shrimp in batches. You want them all making contact with the bottom of the skillet--and not too crowded--in order to cook evenly. Remove from heat. Allow to cool and serve, or refrigerate until serving time.
