Buttermilk Shrimp

Image
I couldn't find a good recipe for buttermilk shrimp ANYWHERE, so I made up my own. 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined 1 cup buttermilk (I used low fat) 2 T cajun seasoning Butter onion, diced fine 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 cup (or so) good white wine chicken broth salt and pepper to taste cooked orzo Blend buttermilk and seasoning. Marinate shrimp one hour. Heat butter in large frying pan. When sizzling add onions and saute until soft (don't brown). Add garlic and saute about a minute. Add wine and broth and simmer until reduced by half. Add shrimp and a little of the buttermilk mixture. Simmer til shrimp is just cooked. Add salt and pepper. I served this over orzo, as this was what Matt had requested. Variations: Add tarragon or dill. Use Old Bay in place of the cajun seasoning.
