New Orleans Style Barbecue Shrimp

Instructions

1. Heat a medium skillet over medium-low heat.
2. Once the skillet is warm, saute the diced onion in 2 tablespoons of butter. As soon as the onion starts to turn translucent and brown, add the minced garlic. Cook for about 1 minutes, then stir in the celery salt, chili powder, salt and pepper.
3. Continue stirring for about 1 more minute, monitoring the garlic to be sure it doesn’t overcook.
4. Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter, and when it begins to brown and bubble, remove from the heat.
5. Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, and shrimp.
6. Put pan back on the heat at low temperature, and cook the shrimp in the sauce until cooked through but not overdone. While shrimp is cooking, stir frequently.
7. Once done, serve over rice, if desired, and with french bread.
