Sugar And Spice Baked Shrimp Recipes

SPICED SALT-BAKED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat oven to 475 degrees. In a bowl, add salt, cardamom, peppercorns, cinnamon, bay leaves, anise, two lemon wedges, the thyme, the jalapeños and the garlic and mix well.
• In a large shallow baking dish, add half the salt mixture. Place in oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
• Carefully remove pan from oven and set shrimp in a single layer on salt and then cover with remaining, cool salt mixture.
• Return to oven. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes more, or until shrimp are just cooked through.
• Serve shrimp in the salt, or remove to a platter. Garnish with remaining lemon. Serve with cocktail or tartar sauce or melted butter.

VAL'S SPICY BAKED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer bacon to a paper-lined plate to drain, reserving bacon grease in the skillet. Dice the bacon once cooled enough to handle.
• Melt butter in the remaining bacon grease over medium heat. Cook and stir diced bacon, Dijon mustard, chili powder, red pepper flakes, basil, thyme, onion, and garlic until onion is tender, about 5 minutes.
• Stir wine and seafood seasoning into onion mixture; add shrimp and toss to coat.
• Pour shrimp and onion mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 20 minutes.

SUGAR AND SPICE BACON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place flour, sugar, and pepper into a resealable plastic bag and shake to mix. Shake bacon with flour mixture a few strips at a time to coat. Place coated bacon onto a baking sheet or broiler pan.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until bacon has cooked to desired doneness.

SUGAR-AND-SPICE-BAKED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, salt, pepper, garlic, ginger, cayenne, allspice, turmeric and flour. Grease a large baking sheet.
• Dredge the shrimp, a few at a time, in the sugar mixture and place on the baking sheet. Bake until the sugar is caramelized, especially on the bottom, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the shrimp from the oven, turn over with a spatula and squeeze lime juice over them. Place on a platter and serve immediately.
