New Orleans-style BBQ shrimp is not actually put on the barbecue. Instead, it’s braised in spiced butter and beer and served with crispy French bread to soak up the sauce. This is one of those dishes you can whip up quickly and when you do, you can’t stop eating it.

Directions
- Heat a sauté pan over medium-high heat, then add the canola oil. Season the shrimp with the salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the Creole seasoning. Add the shrimp to the pan and sauté until pink on the bottom, about 1 minute. Flip the shrimp, add the garlic and continue to cook, adding a drizzle of oil if your pan looks dry, until the shrimp is pink on the second side and the garlic is fragrant, about another minute. Remove the shrimp to a plate.
- Deglaze the pan with the white wine. Add the beer, Worcestershire, black pepper, chile flakes, hot sauce, rosemary, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons Creole seasoning and the juice of half of the lemon (with the squeezed lemon half) to the pan. Allow the sauce to come to a simmer; simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the shrimp back to the pan. Whisk in the cold butter and continue to cook, swirling the pan, until the butter is fully incorporated, about 3 minutes. Squeeze in the juice from the other half of the lemon as the sauce finishes cooking. Remove the rosemary sprig and top with the parsley.
- To serve: Place the shrimp in a serving bowl and pour a generous amount of the liquid over the shrimp. Place the toasted baguette on the side for soaking up all the flavor.
