Tasty Easy #StayAtHome Pandemic Margarita Shrimp & Rice

I promise you this is the easiest shrimp recipe you’ll find. It’s been my #StayAtHome go to when I don’t want to order in and I, once again, forgot to defrost the hamburger.

Start with buying some frozen raw large or jumbo shrimp. This part matters, first, because it’s something you can just toss in your freezer, second, because if you buy the cooked shrimp, it won’t marinate right and will turn out tougher.

Next, buy a bottle of ready to serve margarita. I use the Chi-Chi’s brand or 1800, but really, it’s totally your call depending on flavor and budget.

You’ll also need cilantro, an onion, garlic, salt, pepper and at least one jalapeño. Simple. :)

Step 1. Pour yourself a glass of the ready made margarita.

Step 2. Turn on the radio.

Step 3. Defrost the shrimp, while packaged, in cold water (water must be cold!!) This might take about 20 minutes.
