Grilled Shrimp and Dirty Rice Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate for 15-30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Dirty Rice

    In a pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, bell pepper, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Rice and Broth

    Stir in the long-grain rice and cook for 2 minutes. Add chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until rice is cooked.

  4. 4

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are opaque and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Prepare Hushpuppies

    In a bowl, combine hushpuppy mix and water. Mix until just combined. Drop spoonfuls into hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the grilled shrimp alongside the dirty rice and serve with hushpuppies on the side. Garnish with chopped green onions.
