I tried this recipe – another one of McCormick’s 2010 Flavor Pairings.
It was a wonderful appetizer and it only took 20 minutes. Only thing that I would change up is I would use a little corn starch to thicken up the sauce.
I really liked the combination of mustard and shrimp and will have to experiment with this recipe a little. It could lead to all sorts of variations…most of which I think I would love.
2 tablespoon butter
1 large red onion, thinly sliced
1 pound large shrimp with shells on (26 to 30 count), deveined
1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Thyme Leaves
1/4 teaspoon McCormick® Black Pepper, Coarse Ground
1/4 teaspoon McCormick® Gourmet Collection Sicilian Sea Salt
