Blackened Shrimp & Crab Bread Bowl Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Shrimp

   In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with blackening seasoning, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

2. 2

   Cook the Shrimp

   Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are opaque and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

   Make the Cream Sauce

   In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add cream cheese and heavy cream, stirring until smooth. Stir in pepper jack cheese until melted and combined.

4. 4

   Combine Shrimp and Crab

   Gently fold in the cooked shrimp and lump crab meat to the cream sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on low heat, allowing the flavors to meld. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
